\n Credit: Soul Assembly – Stephen Johnson<\/span>\n <\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\nDrop Dead: The Cabin<\/em>:<\/a> I am in love with the mixed-reality mode of Drop Dead: The Cabin<\/em>. It replaces the windows and doors of your room with game-specific portals, stocks you up with guns and ammo, and sets zombies loose to invade your home. It\u2019s like living in Dawn of the Dead.<\/em>\u00a0<\/p>\nAssassin\u2019s Creed: Nexus VR<\/em>: <\/a>Stealth gaming and virtual reality come together in this Assassin\u2019s Creed game. Nexus<\/em> really takes advantage of the beefed-up power of the Quest 3 and delivers one of the system\u2019s finest AAA game experiences.\u00a0<\/p>\nAsgard\u2019s Wrath 2<\/em><\/a>: At the time of this posting, Asgard\u2019s Wrath 2<\/em> has only been out for a few days, so I haven\u2019t played it enough to comment on the complete game, but I will say this: If the rest of the game is as good as the first few hours, it\u2019s the best game ever released in VR.\u00a0<\/p>\nVegas Infinite<\/em>:<\/a> This free game is for the casuals out there. It lets you gamble virtual money at poker, blackjack, roulette, craps, and slots in virtual casinos, but the people you\u2019re playing with are real. It\u2019s relaxing, social, and takes advantage of the Quest 3\u2019s pass-through cameras and improved hand and eye tracking too.\u00a0<\/p>\nMust-have utilities for the Meta Quest 3<\/h2>\n
Side Quest:<\/a> This app lets you download and install apps on your Quest 3 that don\u2019t come from the Meta Store, so if you\u2019re interested in expanding the possibilities of your VR headset, Side Quest is a must. It gives you access to a huge collection of tech demos, games, apps, and more, as well as giving you new options for customizing and improving your Quest 3 experience. You\u2019ll also need Side Quest to install Quest Game Optimizer.<\/p>\nQuest Games Optimizer<\/a>: If you\u2019re even a little \u201cserious\u201d about gaming, consider this $10 utility. It allows you to control the resolution on games, letting you up-rez the graphics on many Quest games, as well as letting you control frame rates, record video, and access other settings.\u00a0<\/p>\nVirtual Desktop<\/a>:<\/strong> Virtual Desktop allows you to wirelessly connect to your computer in virtual reality. Along with streaming videos, browsing the web, and doing anything else your PC does, you can use this to run PCVR games with your Quest 3 (as long as you are running a Window 10 or 11 PC that\u2019s specced for virtual reality games) unlocking a new level of gameplay.\u00a0<\/p>\nMust-have video-streaming apps for the Meta Quest 3<\/h2>\n\n\n ![\"lucha](\"https:\/\/www.prime-wow.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/12\/images-2.fill_.size_2000x1250.v1702968515.jpg\")

You can watch YouTube, Disney+, Twitch, and PlutoTV streams, rent movies, or watch videos stored on your computer, either alone or with others.\u00a0<\/p>\nXStadium:<\/a> If you\u2019re into sports, XStadium is a mind-blower. It puts you courtside at live NBA games, giving you a fully immersive, 360 degree, you-are-there basketball experience. You can also immerse yourself in UFC fights from the Octagon, and check out X-games madness, watch some good old fashioned wrestling, and enjoy other sports, either in 360 view or in multi screened mixed reality.\u00a0<\/p>\nDeoVR<\/a>: <\/strong>You can watch and customize all kinds of video content with this app\u2014it\u2019s not just<\/em> for porn. But if you\u2019re interested in new thresholds of virtual-reality pornography<\/a>, this is the go-to video app.\u00a0<\/p>\nMust-have fitness apps for the Meta Quest 3<\/h2>\n\n\n ![\"The](\"https:\/\/www.prime-wow.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/12\/images-3.fill_.size_2000x1276.v1702968515.jpg\")

BodyCombat features a ton of martial-arts inspired workouts and knowledgable virtual coaches, and it doesn\u2019t require a subscription.\u00a0<\/p>\nSupernatural<\/a>: The subscription-based Supernatural is my favorite fitness app for the Quest. I\u2019m a huge music snob, and finding an app with real music, that I actually like, was downright shocking. The coaches are charismatic, and the workouts are almost as fun as Beat Sabre.
