FULL STORY ====================================================================== A new month doesnt just mean the arrival of a new Meta Quest 3 update with the recent v68 rollout adding useful home design tools for free it also signals new free games coming to the Meta Quest Plus subscription. This month (August 2024) those are the narrative-driven puzzle adventure Myst a classic remade in VR and Ragnarock a rhythm meets racing game with a norse and viking theme. Myst VR is a recreation of the puzzle game that first launched in 1993, and was remade several times with better graphics and more interactivity as computers improved. Its an icon of the genre, and while its not seen as the perfect puzzle game by everyone in part due to its advanced age its a title many agree you should try out. Given the VR version is free with Quest Plus theres no better reason to finally give it a whirl. Ragnarok on the other hand is a raucous racer in which you use your hammers to smash drums in time with viking-inspired music. Doing so makes your boat row faster, and help you earn gold medals across single and multiplayer matches. If you're looking for other VR games to enjoy, check out my favorite Meta Quest 3 games and apps from July 2024 . What is Meta Quest Plus? For a monthly fee of $7.99 / 7.99 (or a yearly cost of $59.99 / 59.99, which is a hefty saving) you can access a lot of free VR games through Meta Quest Plus. Theres titles like Myst and Ragnarok which you can only download for free during a specific month, but then you can play them for as long as youre subscribed (or if you resubscribe should your membership lapse). Theres games in a Netflix-like rotating catalog which currently includes Demeo , Walkabout Mini Golf , Tetris Effect , and 9 others that will swap in and out. So you wont always be able to play a specific title, but you will find something to keep you entertained. If you want to play a lot of different VR games and dont have much of a preference for what you play then Quest Plus is a solid deal. Its also included in Metas buy now, pay later scheme for the Quest 3, though that way of getting a 512GB headset and membership isnt as good a deal as it could be, as we discovered .
