What happened to the Oculus Go

Facebook discontinued the Oculus Go in 2020, and we retired ours when its library stopped growing. It was the first standalone headset we rented in volume: light, cheap and simple, which made it good for 360 video and short demos and not much else.

What we rent instead

The Meta Quest 3 is the Go’s direct successor: still standalone, still no PC, but with hand tracking, full freedom of movement and a library of games and experiences the Go never had. If the job is 360 film for a lot of guests at once, that’s still the right kit, just a much better version of it.

What the Go was good for

360 video at scale, a headset for every guest, and quiet, seated experiences for conferences. All three run on the Quest 3 today.
