Overview
- Meta CTO Andrew Bosworth said Horizon Worlds will stay accessible in VR for existing games "for the foreseeable future," reversing a shutdown plan announced days earlier.
- Horizon Unity runtime titles already live on Quest will continue to operate in VR and will not be ported to mobile.
- Meta is not planning new Horizon Worlds games for VR, pointing to creator and consumer focus on phones.
- Prior guidance set March 31 for delisting Worlds and Events from the Quest Store and June 15 for removing the app from headsets; the update preserves VR access for current games.
- Bosworth rejected "misinformation," saying Horizon is not dead and describing the metaverse as broader than VR with ongoing investment.
