The Meta Quest 3S Xbox Edition is a limited-edition bundle that Meta and Xbox announced in June 2025. It takes the standard 128GB Meta Quest 3S and finishes the headset and its Touch Plus controllers in Xbox Carbon Black with Velocity Green accents, then adds a matching limited-edition Xbox Wireless Controller pre-paired with the headset and the Meta Quest Elite Strap. Xbox described quantities as extremely limited. Inside, it is the same standalone mixed reality headset as any Quest 3S: Snapdragon XR2 Gen 2, 8GB of memory, LCD panels at 1832 × 1920 per eye and colour passthrough, with no PC or console required.

What comes in the Xbox Edition bundle
According to Xbox, the Meta Quest 3S Xbox Edition bundle contains the custom 128GB Quest 3S headset, matching Touch Plus controllers, a limited-edition Xbox Wireless Controller in Carbon Black with Velocity Green face buttons and sticks, and the Meta Quest Elite Strap. The original launch offer also included 3 months of Meta Horizon+ and 3 months of Xbox Game Pass Ultimate. The bundle was sold through meta.com and Best Buy in the USA and Argos and EE in the UK; subscription offers can be tied to account region and time limits, so do not count on those codes when comparing prices. The hardware itself works anywhere.
Xbox games on a big virtual screen
The point of the Xbox controller in the box is cloud gaming. With an Xbox Game Pass Ultimate membership and a strong internet connection, Xbox Cloud Gaming lets you play supported Xbox titles on a large virtual display inside the headset, either in a virtual room or over your real surroundings in passthrough. These games are played as standard 2D games on a big screen, not converted into VR. Because the controller arrives pre-paired, it works as soon as you set up the headset. For native VR games, the Meta Quest 3S Xbox Edition uses the Touch Plus controllers or hand tracking, exactly like a standard Quest 3S.
Display, chip and mixed reality
Meta lists the Quest 3S with an LCD at 1832 × 1920 per eye (about 20 pixels per degree), refresh rates up to 120Hz, a field of view of 96° horizontal and 90° vertical, and three preset lens spacing positions. In the Meta Quest 3S Xbox Edition, the Snapdragon XR2 Gen 2 chip and 8GB of memory run games and apps on the headset itself. Colour stereoscopic passthrough at 4 MP lets you see your room, set boundaries and use mixed reality apps that place virtual objects on your real table or wall. Meta notes there is no depth sensor on Quest 3S.
The Elite Strap and comfort
The standard Quest 3S ships with a soft fabric strap. The Meta Quest 3S Xbox Edition instead includes the Meta Quest Elite Strap, which uses a rigid rear cradle and a dial to tighten the fit, spreading the weight more evenly across the back of the head. That makes longer cloud gaming sessions on the virtual screen more comfortable, especially when you sit still and play with a gamepad. Glasses wearers should still check the fit and use the spacer setting where needed.
Battery, storage and connectivity
Meta quotes about 2.5 hours of battery life for Quest 3S, and charging takes about 2.5 hours with the supplied adapter. Long gaming sessions therefore need a break or a power source. The 128GB of storage in the Meta Quest 3S Xbox Edition cannot be expanded, so heavy VR libraries will need regular management, though cloud-streamed Xbox games do not take up headset storage. Wi-Fi 6E and Bluetooth 5.2 handle wireless connections, and a single USB-C port is used for charging and for Meta Quest Link to a Windows PC.
Who This Is Not For
The Meta Quest 3S Xbox Edition is not for buyers who want the sharpest image: Meta Quest 3 has higher resolution and pancake lenses. Storage is 128GB and cannot be expanded. Battery life is about 2.5 hours. Xbox Cloud Gaming needs a paid Game Pass Ultimate membership and a fast, stable connection, and it streams standard 2D games rather than VR versions. This edition was sold in limited quantities in the USA and UK, so bundled subscription offers may not apply to every account. It needs a Meta account to set up, and Meta sets a minimum age for its headsets.
