Meta Quest 3 Deals: Free Game, Quest Plus and Gift Cards

The Meta Quest 2 has been one of our overall favorite VR headsets since it hit shelves back in 2020, so it’s no surprise that CNET reviewer Scott Stein called the updated Quest 3 the “best VR headset for the moment.” This next-gen model hit shelves just this month, and though it’s a little pricier than its predecessor, we’ve rounded up the best offers out there to help you get your hands on one for less. Straightforward discounts are still pretty slim at the moment, but several retailers are offering free games and other bonuses that can add up to more than $100 in savings.

Unlike the Meta Quest 2 that came before it, the Quest 3 embraces both virtual reality and mixed reality experiences à la Apple’s Vision Pro and last year’s Quest Pro. It costs a lot less than both those devices, though, with a $500 starting price.

Other improvements over its predecessor include a new Qualcomm Snapdragon XR2 Gen 2 processor, better graphics, a higher-resolution display and improved controllers.

We’ll continue to update this collection of Meta Quest 3 offers as more become available, so if nothing grabs you right now, check back later.

Newegg has the best Meta Quest 3 offer out there at the moment. In addition to a free copy of Asgard’s Wrath 2, and six free months of Meta Quest Plus if you upgrade to the 512GB model, it is also throwing in Meta gift cards while supplies last.

Like other retailers, Walmart is offering a free copy of Asgard’s Wrath 2 with the Meta Quest 3. Six free months of Quest Plus are also included with the 512GB model, but it’s currently sold out.

You can, of course, go straight to Meta to pick up the new Quest 3 headset . And you’ll see the same free game and Meta Quest Plus promos there, too.

The Quest 3 is also available for purchase at B&H, but unlike other retailers, there is no mention of digital freebies there. Though you can get the tax back as cashback if you pay with B&H’s own Payboo credit card.
