If you’re brand new to Meta Quest (Quest 2, Quest 3, or Quest 3s), this video is my 2026 “start here” list: top games across basically every genre you’d actually want to try first. I break it down by category with timestamps so you can jump straight to what you’re into—board game vibes, sports, multiplayer, music, social, fitness, mixed reality, FPS, horror, action, interactive story, racing, battle royale, puzzle, platformer, and roguelike. The goal is simple: help you spend your money on the right stuff and avoid that “I bought five games and none of them clicked” feeling. Along the way I call out the heavy hitters and the newer stuff I’m excited about—things like Demeo (and the D&D crossover), Beat Saber, Eleven Table Tennis, Contractors, and big-name single-player experiences like Asgard’s Wrath 2. I also shout out mixed reality options and even the Meta Photon app if you want more immersive media beyond games. If you want my quick-and-dirty recommendations for what to buy first depending on your mood (party night, solo campaign, sweat session, or spooky time), this is the video.
