Meta says it funded over 100 VR & mixed reality titles that shipped in 2024, as well as over 200 currently in “active production”. […] These figures were revealed today at GDC 2025 by Meta’s Director of Games Chris Pruett, during a talk where he also claimed that opening the store and heavily pushing Horizon Worlds did not meaningfully affect store spending, and revealed that monthly headset usage increased 30% in 2024.
