This is the best Meta Quest 3 deal you'll find on Cyber Monday — and you'll get a year of VR games for free

Searching for a massive discount on the Meta Quest 3 this Cyber Monday? Well, we're still waiting for a big price cut on one of the best VR headsets around. But thanks to this special offer, we're not out of luck just yet.

I've been looking out for the Meta Quest 3 since Black Friday, and while it got a brief discount, that didn't last long. Instead, you'll want to set your eyes on this Meta Quest 3 with 12 months of Meta Horizon+ at Costco. That's right, the retailer is practically giving away a year of free VR games for free with a purchase of the Quest 3.

Considering Meta Horizon+ offers a monthly bundle of some of the best VR games on the system, and that it usually costs $7.99 a month or $59.99 a year, you're essentially getting access to over 50+ games while saving yourself $60. If there's one Meta Quest 3 deal to grab this Cyber Monday, it's with Costco right now.

The Meta Quest 3 is the finest standalone VR headset you can get, and this special deal at Costco gets you a 12-month subscription to Meta Horizon+. That means a full year of free VR games, and it's constantly updating with all new hit titles. This one's well worth the full price, and certainly beats what Amazon and Best Buy have going right now.

I've been using the Meta Quest 3 since it launched, and with the steady number of updates it's seen and even more exclusive VR games on offer, it's just about the best VR headset I've used.

With Batman: Arkham Shadow and the very recent (and extremely fun) Marvel's Deadpool VR in its library of games, not to mention classics like Resident Evil 4, these make up many of the best VR games I've played. And yes, many excellent titles will be on Meta Horizon+, and you'll get a steady stream of constantly updated games.

Meta Horizon+ offers you instant access to over 50 VR games at once. Right now, that includes Asgard's Wrath 2 (one of the finest VR games ever), Walkabout Mini Golf, Onward, Synth Riders, Demeo, Angry Birds VR: Isle of Pigs and plenty more. With a year's subscription, you'll be getting even more games each month!

Aside from that, this VR headset can be used to stream your favorite shows and movies on a massive, cinema-like screen, play non-VR games on Xbox Game Pas Ultimate with extremely low latency and even teach you how to draw.

Now, while I'd call the Meta Quest 3 a no-brainer for anyone looking for a top-of-the-line VR experience, the Quest 3S is offering far more value right now. No pancake lenses here, so resolution won't be as good, but seeing the Meta Quest 3S down to its lowest price ever for just $249 at Amazon is a downright steal.
