Meta Quest 3 pre-order – price and where to buy the newest VR headset
If you're hoping to pick up the Meta Quest 3, here's how much the headset will set you back as well as which retailers are stocking the headset.
We've finally had confirmation of the Meta Quest 3 price in the UK following the Meta Connect 2023 event, with a 128GB model coming in at £479.99 / $499.99 / AU$799.99. If you're on the hunt for a larger capacity headset then you're in luck as Meta has also released a 512GB model which will set you back £619.00 / $649.99 / AU$1,049.99.
Meta Quest 3 pre-orders are now open with both editions up for grabs at multiple retailers. The headset will be shipping on October 10, 2023, less than two weeks after the keynote, making a relatively tight turnaround as we predicted.
Pre-ordering the Meta Quest 3 128GB edition also scores you a free copy of the upcoming title Asgard's Wrath 2, which runs natively on the device. If you opt for the 512GB edition, you can get your hands on the game as well as a 6-month trial of Meta Quest+ for free.
Meta Quest 3 pre-order: where to buy
Right now you can pick up both the 128GB and 512GB editions of the Meta Quest 3 straight from the Meta website as well as Amazon, worldwide. The headset is also available from a range of other retailers in different regions including EE and Game in the UK and Walmart and BestBuy in the US.

Alongside the price, release date, and pre-orders being confirmed we've got a full rundown of the Meta Quest 3 specs so we know more of what to expect from the newest virtual reality headset. The new Meta Quest 3 features a new Snapdragon XR2 Gen 2 processor, which Meta claims is twice as powerful in terms of GPU processing power than the Meta Quest 2.
Paired with this are high-fidelity coloured cameras on the front of the headset to allow for seamless passthrough and amazing augmented reality experiences which put the Apple Vision Pro to shame. Not only can you game with the Meta Quest 3, but you'll also be able to watch movies and work using the device thanks to access to productivity apps like Microsoft Office 365.
The Meta Quest 3 will likely come to other retailers in different regions in the coming weeks, as we've seen the Meta Quest 2 for sale at a range of tech outlets. We'll be sure to update the above retailer list as more options become available.
