Oculus confirms major financial success for over 60 Oculus Quest games since the launch of the Oculus Quest 2 virtual reality headset.

With the Oculus Rift S headset discontinued, Oculus is focusing its efforts on promoting its Oculus Quest 2 headset. Oculus Quest 2 allows users to play Oculus Rift games when connected to a PC, but the main draw is the ability to use it wherever without having to worry about cables getting in the way. It seems as though Oculus' efforts to push Quest 2 as its main VR headset is paying off, especially for those who are developing games for the headset.

Oculus has confirmed that there are over 60 Oculus Quest games generating more than $1 million in revenue, with six games making over $10 million in revenue. Oculus didn't single out those six games or provide specifics, but it did take the time to mention some of its more popular games on the Oculus Quest. This includes the music/rhythm game Beat Saber, the battle royale game Population: One, and social games like Rec Room and VR Chat.

Oculus also pointed out how multiplayer games are becoming increasingly popular on the service, pointing to Population: OneEcho VR, and Onward as some examples.

Traditional VR video games aren't the only apps enjoying success on Oculus Quest 2. Fitness apps have also been hugely popular, especially the Supernatural fitness app. According to Oculus, the Supernatural fitness app has had its subscriptions doubled since the launch of Quest 2, which is an impressive feat to say the least.

Moving forward, VR enthusiasts can expect the Oculus Quest library of games to grow, with Oculus developing first-party games in addition to third-party titles.
