More than sixty 3D movies are now available inside the Disney+ app on Meta Quest 3 and Quest 3S headsets, 9to5Google reported.
The update brings spatial viewing options that were previously exclusive to Apple’s Vision Pro, according to UploadVR.
Subscribers can access the 3D titles at no extra cost beyond a standard membership tier. Dolby Atmos and Dolby Vision capabilities remain tied to specific subscription plans, while the 3D movie library itself is open to all users.
The update also introduces immersive 3D spatial theaters. Users can watch films inside custom virtual environments that shift throughout the runtime, PhoneArena reported.
“Catch Star Wars: A New Hope (Episode IV) from a comfy spot on Tatooine, see the Avengers battle Loki from atop Avengers Tower, settle in for a Pixar movie night on the Monsters, Inc. Scare Floor, and more,” Meta said in a release noted by 9to5Google.
Star Wars and Marvel Catalogs Expand VR Lineup
The expanded catalog includes major franchises from the Marvel and Star Wars universes, alongside traditional Disney releases. Jedi News reported that fans can stream titles such as The Force Awakens, The Last Jedi, The Rise of Skywalker, Rogue One, and The Mandalorian and Grogu in three dimensions.
UploadVR confirmed that additional properties like Black Panther, The Avengers, Avatar, and the live-action remake of Beauty and the Beast are also accessible within the app. The library features IMAX Enhanced certification for select films, mimicking a massive theater screen at the correct aspect ratio.
Prior to this update, the Disney+ application on Meta headsets supported only 2D media playback. Users can now also download content and utilize Dolby Atmos immersive audio where available.
Meta plans VR movie integration
The current 3D movie integration operates through the standalone Disney+ application on supported hardware. Meta plans to expand this viewing experience to its upcoming Meta VR Glasses when the hardware launches in the spring of 2027.
Recent leaks from dataminers point toward potential broader bundle strategies involving Meta’s subscription services. A leaked screen posted by user Nori on X and analyzed by vr.org indicated that future subscription tiers might incorporate monthly movie selections from various distributors.
“you'll be able to rent or buy hundreds of movies later this year on Meta Quest in the US.” Meta previously announced plans at its September event to introduce hundreds of rent-or-buy movies and monthly 3D releases leading up to the 2027 hardware rollout. Pricing and regional availability for those upcoming tiers remain unconfirmed by company officials.
