|introduction      = '''Meta Platforms, Inc.''', simply known as '''Meta''', is a American multinational technology conglomerate.
+
|introduction      = This is an article containing a list of virtual reality headsets produced by [[Company:Reality Labs|Oculus VR]] and later [[Company:Meta|Meta]].
  
−
|release history  = The conglomerate was originally founded on January 4, 2004 as '''TheFacebook Inc.''', before renamed to '''Facebook Inc.''', and its best known of the social website [[Wikipedia:Facebook|Facebook]]. In July 2012, a company named '''Oculus VR Inc.''' was founded and had been developing and producing virtual reality headsets. Oculus VR was later acquired by Facebook in 2014. In 2021, Facebook was renamed to its current corporate name '''Meta Platforms, Inc.''' and in the same year, the Oculus branding was mostly phased out. The old Oculus VR Inc, now a subsidiary company of Meta, was renamed to '''Reality Labs'''.
+
|current state    = On PC, Meta's virtual reality headsets support games that utilize Meta's own LibOVR API and the open-sourced OpenXR API. Through [[Steam]], the headsets also play games that use Valve's OpenVR API. Do note that some earlier VR games use earlier version of the LibOVR API and may only support the Rift [[#Oculus Rift Development Kit 1|DK1]] and/or [[#Oculus Rift Development Kit 2|DK2]], and not support the consumer VR headsets, and in that case, a third-party application [https://github.com/kalavaras/LibOVRWrapper LibOVRWrapper] is needed for playing those titles with the consumer headsets. For standalone VR headsets, playing games from outside the Oculus Store requires [https://www.meta.com/help/quest/articles/headsets-and-accessories/oculus-rift-s/unknown-sources/ enabling <code>Unknown Sources</code>]. PC VR is usually done through Meta's Oculus App or third-party software like [https://github.com/alvr-org/ALVR ALVA] and [https://www.vrdesktop.net/ Virtual Desktop] on supported headsets.
−
 
 
−
|current state    = The company have several VR headsets: The Oculus Rift DK1 and CV1, Oculus Rift S, Oculus Quest, Meta Quest 2, Meta Quest Pro and a upcoming Meta Quest 3. Do note that Some VR games may only support the Rift [[#Oculus Rift Development Kit 1|DK1]] and/or [[#Oculus Rift Development Kit 2|DK2]], and not support the consumer VR headsets, and in that case, a third-party application [https://github.com/kalavaras/LibOVRWrapper LibOVRWrapper] can make some DK1/DK2 games compatible with the consumer headsets.

The Meta Quest 2, the best-selling VR headset on the market.

See virtual reality headset article for more information. For a list of games, see List of VR games. For the company itself, see Meta.

This is an article containing a list of virtual reality headsets produced by Oculus VR and later Meta.

On PC, Meta's virtual reality headsets support games that utilize Meta's own LibOVR API and the open-sourced OpenXR API. Through Steam, the headsets also play games that use Valve's OpenVR API. Do note that some earlier VR games use earlier version of the LibOVR API and may only support the Rift DK1 and/or DK2, and not support the consumer VR headsets, and in that case, a third-party application LibOVRWrapper is needed for playing those titles with the consumer headsets. For standalone VR headsets, playing games from outside the Oculus Store requires enabling Unknown Sources. PC VR is usually done through Meta's Oculus App or third-party software like ALVA and Virtual Desktop on supported headsets.
