Meta VR Plus: Horizon+ Rename Rumour and 3D Films Explained

Meta VR Plus might be the next name for Horizon+, and it could come with 3D films as well as games. That’s according to a leaked screenshot shared by a well-known Quest dataminer over the weekend. Meta hasn’t said a word about it yet. So here’s what the leak shows, what Horizon+ gives you today, how it fits with Meta’s film plans, and the big questions nobody can answer yet.

What does the Meta VR Plus leak show?

The screenshot was posted on X on Sunday 8 November by the dataminer Nori, who credited the find to another user, NT2182. According to VR.org, the screen has one heading: “3D Movies included in your subscription.” Underneath, in small grey text, is the name Meta VR Plus.

Three film posters sit in a row. They are Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 3, Project Hail Mary and Spider-Man: Far From Home. Below those are tiles for Disney+, MLB and Prime Video.

Nori hedged the post twice, writing that Meta “may be planning” the rebrand and “may include” monthly films. 9to5Google picked it up on Monday. As VR.org points out, the screen shows no price, no date and no country. So this is a rumour, not an announcement.

Why would Meta rename Horizon+ again?

Horizon+ has already changed its name once. It launched as Quest+ in June 2023, and Meta renamed it Horizon+ in May 2025, according to VR.org. Now the Horizon name seems to be on its way out.

9to5Google says Meta has been “removing the ‘Horizon’ name from just about everything” this year. It points to the reset of Meta’s VR division in February and the Horizon social world moving to mobile only. A Meta VR name would also match the upcoming Meta VR Glasses, which don’t carry the Quest name either. VR.org makes a neat point here: a subscription called VR would cover both product lines, while one called Quest wouldn’t.

Quest+, then Horizon+, and maybe VR+. If you’ve lost track, you’re not alone. At least the new name would say what it is on the tin.

What Horizon+ gives you today

Nothing has changed yet, so it’s worth a quick reminder of what you’re paying for. According to Meta’s Horizon+ page, subscribers get:

A catalogue of 100+ games to play while subscribed.
Two monthly games, a “top hit and hidden gem”, which you keep if you redeem them that month.
Online multiplayer access.
Xbox Game Pass Starter Edition, with 50+ games and 10 hours of cloud gaming a month.
Exclusive deals on other games.

In the US it costs $7.99 a month or $59.99 a year, per VR.org’s check of Meta’s page. Here in the UK, Currys sells a 12-month code for £59.99. This month, UploadVR reports that PAYDAY: Aces High joined on launch day, along with Assassin’s Creed Nexus. I wrote about the first of those in my Payday Aces High on Quest guide.

One small catch is easy to miss. Meta’s FAQ says monthly games must be redeemed within the month they’re offered. Forget, and they’re gone.

Meta VR Plus and 3D films: how it fits

The leak didn’t come out of nowhere. At Connect in September, Meta’s official blog said you’ll be able to “rent or buy hundreds of movies later this year on Meta Quest in the US”. It also promised “new 3D movies releasing every month”.

The same post said Disney+ subscribers can start streaming films like The Avengers and Black Panther in 3D in November, in select countries. MIXED adds that a Billie Eilish concert film, co-directed with James Cameron, is due to rent or buy in 3D on Quest this month.

So a subscription that bundles a few 3D films each month fits neatly with all that. VR.org notes the wording lines up too. Meta said “every month”, and Nori said “monthly movies”. That makes the leak plausible, but it doesn’t confirm it.

The odd one out

VR.org spotted something strange about the posters. Meta’s announced route to Disney films in 3D runs through Disney’s own app, and Meta’s fine print says a Disney+ subscription is required. A Marvel film listed as “included” in Meta’s subscription would point to a separate deal that nobody has mentioned. Sony Pictures, which released the Spider-Man film, also wasn’t named in Meta’s list of film partners in September. That list did end with “and more”, though, so it proves very little.

What it means for UK players

This is the bit I’d keep an eye on. Meta’s rent-or-buy film store is US-only to start with. MIXED points out that the only wider timing Meta has given is the spring 2027 launch of the VR Glasses. Meta’s blog says there’ll be “thousands of titles available internationally” by then.

Disney+ 3D is coming to “select countries”, but Meta hasn’t listed them. So even if the renamed service does add films, there’s no guarantee they’ll reach the UK on day one. I’d wait for Meta to say which countries are included before getting excited.

If you just want to watch more on your headset right now, the Theater mode in testing is the nearest thing. I covered it in my Horizon OS 2.10 rundown. It already works with YouTube, Disney+ and Prime Video, according to UploadVR.

Would films make it better value?

If films came at no extra cost, that would clearly sweeten the deal. However, 9to5Google raises the obvious alternative. Meta could add a separate, pricier tier, the way Netflix, Disney+ and Game Pass do.

There’s also the question of how films would work. VR.org asks whether they’d rotate out like catalogue games, or whether “monthly” means a couple of films to keep, like the monthly games. Nobody knows yet. That’s worth knowing before anyone pays a penny more for it.

Project Hail Mary is an interesting choice for the leaked screen. Its VR tie-in, Journey Among the Stars, launches on Quest 3 and 3S on 12 November. I covered the game in my Project Hail Mary VR guide.

What we still don’t know

Whether Meta will confirm the rename at all.
The price, and whether films need a higher tier.
How many films you’d get, and whether they stay or rotate.
Which countries get it, and whether the UK is one of them.
Whether the name is “Meta VR Plus” or “Meta VR+”. The screen says one, and the post said the other.

Until Meta says something, nothing changes. If you’d rather own your games outright than subscribe, my promo code VRCGUY is there for games you buy on the Meta Store. It’s my own code, and it helps support this site. For more Quest news in one place, have a look at my Meta Quest hub.
