Meta has confirmed that the Quest 4 VR headset is currently in active development. The device is expected to be a significant upgrade over the current Quest 3 model with enhanced performance.
Meta's CTO has indicated the Quest 4 will be a large upgrade incorporating lessons learned from previous releases. The company is restructuring Reality Labs to focus more on gaming experiences.
The Quest 4 is expected to feature improved displays, better tracking, and enhanced comfort for extended use. Meta aims to address user feedback from the Quest 3 while pushing VR technology forward.
Horizon Worlds is being separated from Quest to focus on third-party app visibility. This strategic shift allows VR to thrive in gaming while supporting diverse content experiences.
The expected release timeframe is 2025, though Meta has delayed mixed reality glasses to 2027. The Quest 4 represents Meta's continued commitment to advancing virtual reality technology.
