San Francisco: Meta Founder and CEO Mark Zuckerberg has announced that Quest 2 virtual reality (VR) headset will get Horizon Home as part of a new update.
The functionality will help users create their own environments without using third-party apps.
“Met up with legendary climber Alex Honnold in the new Horizon Home — launching with Quest v41 update to bring social presence into your virtual home as soon as you put on your headset,” Zuckerberg said in a Facebook post late on Friday.
“Invite friends to hang out, watch videos together, or jump into apps right from your virtual home. More options to customise your home space currently in development,” he added.
Zuckerberg demonstrated the new feature in a video with free climber Honnold.
