A Bigger Net: Horizon+ Expands Its Meta Quest Games in May
Meta’s Horizon+ subscription service is using May to prove its value to content-hungry VR players. Subscribers get access to a rotating Games Catalog plus two highlighted Monthly Games, with seven new additions arriving this month. For anyone browsing Meta Quest games in May, the lineup now includes narrative-heavy puzzlers, arcade classics and co-op shooters, all bundled under a single subscription. Horizon+ continues to function like a streaming library for VR: games can be added or removed at any time, encouraging subscribers to try titles while they are available. With Meta positioning Horizon+ as a core part of the Quest ecosystem, this month’s drop underscores a simple pitch: pay once, explore broadly. For new users, the service also offers a one-month free trial at USD 7.99 (approx. RM37) per month or USD 59.99 (approx. RM285) per year, making experimentation far cheaper than buying individual apps outright.
Monthly Headliners: A Fisherman’s Tale 2 VR and Ancient Dungeon
The centerpiece Horizon+ subscription games for May are A Fisherman’s Tale 2 and Ancient Dungeon, both designed to showcase what VR can do beyond simple ports. A Fisherman’s Tale 2 VR continues the award-winning series’ tradition of perspective-bending puzzles and poetic storytelling, inviting players to manipulate miniature worlds and even their own bodies to uncover hidden truths about the protagonist’s past. Ancient Dungeon takes a very different approach, throwing you into a voxel-styled roguelike filled with procedurally varied dungeons and more than 200 power-ups. Whether played solo or in four-player co-op, its retro visuals and modern replayability loop are built to keep runs feeling fresh. Together, these two Monthly Games highlight Horizon+’s breadth: a carefully crafted narrative adventure alongside a combat-focused dungeon crawler, both included at no extra cost for active subscribers.
Fruit Ninja and Five More Games Join the Horizon+ Catalog
Beyond the Monthly Games, Horizon+ is padding its Meta Quest games catalog in May with five more titles that broaden its appeal. The most recognizable addition is Fruit Ninja, bringing its iconic slice-and-dice arcade gameplay into immersive VR, turning players into “deadly juicers” with motion-controlled precision. Shave & Stuff lets you role-play as a barber, offering light-hearted simulation fun, while After the Fall drops you into a post-apocalyptic Los Angeles to blast through mutant hordes in co-op fashion. Strategy fans can wage tabletop war in Table Troopers, and puzzle adventure enthusiasts can venture down the rabbit hole in Escaping Wonderland, a follow-up to Down The Rabbit Hole praised for inventive design. These additions sit alongside existing heavy-hitters like Beat Saber, Asgard’s Wrath 2 and Pistol Whip, reinforcing Horizon+ as a broad library rather than a niche indie-only collection.
Deep Quest VR Discounts: Townsmen VR, Cubism and Red Matter
Horizon+ subscribers aren’t just getting more games to sample; they also unlock notable Quest VR discounts on strong, well-reviewed titles. City-builder fans can pick up Townsmen VR at 75% off, letting them oversee settlements, care for citizens and gradually expand their territory in room-scale fashion. Puzzle enthusiasts get a generous 60% discount on Cubism, a mixed reality favorite that has players assembling colorful 3D block structures around their physical environment. Story-driven explorers can dive into Red Matter at 50% off, stepping into a dystopian Cold War-inspired sci-fi mystery set on Saturn’s moon Rhea. These deals reward subscribers who want to own standout games permanently while still leveraging the Horizon+ catalog to discover new favorites—lowering the barrier to building a robust personal library alongside the subscription.
Why Horizon+ Makes Meta Quest More Competitive
With Horizon+, Meta is clearly leaning into a bundle approach that mirrors video and music streaming, but tailored for VR. The mix of Monthly Games, a growing catalog and rotating Quest VR discounts gives players multiple ways to engage: sample, subscribe and selectively buy. For developers, inclusion in Horizon+ can extend a game’s lifespan, while players gain a safer way to experiment with titles like A Fisherman’s Tale 2 VR or Ancient Dungeon without committing to full purchases. By continually refreshing the catalog with diverse genres—from arcade staples like Fruit Ninja to narrative puzzlers and hardcore shooters—Meta positions Quest as a more compelling platform for anyone who wants constant new content. As long as the catalog continues to evolve and deals remain aggressive, Horizon+ could become a central reason to stay within the Meta ecosystem rather than hopping to competing headsets.
