So says Boz.

You shouldn’t be worried about that anytime soon, according to the company’s CTO. “The games we announced in the Gaming Showcase are all playable on both Quest 2 and 3, and we expect that to remain the norm for quite a while,” Meta CTO and VR / AR leader Andrew “Boz” Bosworth tells me.

He’s not ruling out the possibility of Quest 3-exclusive or best-on-Quest 3 games, though: “Of course mixed reality and high-power titles may start to target Quest 3 over time,” he adds. That makes some sense to me: after all, the Quest 2 doesn’t have full-color passthrough cameras to let you properly integrate your real-world surroundings into a game, unlike the Quest Pro and new Quest 3. And I’d hate for a potential killer app to be held back by the Quest 2’s processing power — even though Meta has promised to boost the Quest 2’s performance with a software update.
