Overview of Horizon+ Subscription Service
Meta's Horizon+ subscription service, priced at $8 per month, allows users to redeem two selected Quest games each month while providing access to a broader Games Catalog. This service, previously known as Quest+, enables subscribers to play redeemed games as long as their subscription is active. If a user cancels their subscription, access to previously redeemed games is suspended until they resubscribe. Horizon+ is compatible with Quest 2, Quest Pro, Quest 3, and Quest 3S.
December 2025 Game Selections
For December 2025, the two monthly redeemable games are Tactical Assault VR and Smash Drums. Tactical Assault VR, currently in early access, is a military simulation game that supports solo play or co-op with up to six players, featuring scenarios like bomb defusal and hostage rescue. Smash Drums, a VR rhythm game, continues to receive updates, including the recent launch of its 'God of Drums' campaign mode, which introduces new missions and in-game rewards.
Horizon+ Games Catalog
Meta retains the right to modify the Games Catalog at any time. The current catalog includes a diverse range of titles such as Angry Birds VR: Isle of Pigs, Asgard’s Wrath 2, Pistol Whip, and Tetris Effect: Connected, among others. Additionally, an Indie Catalog is in beta testing, featuring titles like Cactus Cowboy - Desert Warfare and Operation Serpens.
Final Fury Update
In conjunction with the Horizon+ offerings, Final Fury has received a significant update titled Tides of Vygor. This update introduces new attacks, including dive kicks and uppercuts, and features a series of ranked events that provide cosmetic rewards for participants. December's events include a festival-themed competition, Festive Fury. Final Fury is now also part of the Horizon+ Games Catalog, making it accessible to subscribers.
Criticism & Opposition
While the Horizon+ service offers a variety of games, some users have expressed concerns regarding the temporary nature of the monthly titles, which are not permanently added to a user's library. Critics argue that this model may not provide long-term value for subscribers who wish to retain access to games after cancellation.
Official Statements & Responses
Meta has stated that the Horizon+ service aims to enhance the gaming experience for users by providing a rotating selection of games and regular updates to existing titles. The company emphasizes its commitment to continually refresh the catalog to keep the offerings engaging for subscribers.
