If you’ve been interested in diving into the world of virtual reality, Black Friday deals may have just what you’re looking for. Both Target and Amazon have a good deal on the Meta Quest 3S: the price is its standard $300, but you’ll get a $75 gift card with purchase.
There’s a lot to recommend the Meta Quest 3S for a virtual reality fan. In fact, it’s our pick for the best budget VR set. Even if you’re investing in a lower-range VR headset, you’ll want to have plenty of software to run on it. The Quest 3S has a large app library and it can be used to stream games from a PC.

While some headsets can be unpleasant to wear for very long, reviewer Devindra Hardawar found that wasn’t an issue with the Quest 3S. And although it has made some sacrifices on the screen and lenses to keep the costs down, this set still delivers a strong, immersive virtual reality experience.
The content included with any Quest headset purchase will help you get started in VR. Batman: Arkham Shadow is one of the most notable exclusive games for Meta’s Quest 3 and Quest 3S, continuing the lineage of the Arkham game universe initially developed by Rocksteady Studios. You’ll also get three months’ subscription to the Meta Quest+ catalog of games. Keeping the subscription after the trial period will cost $8 a month. Or use that gift card and pick up a title to keep.
