Meta Horizon TV: A New VR Entertainment Experience

Stream Movies and Shows on Disney+ and Prime Video with Horizon TV

In a significant update at Meta Connect this year, CEO Mark Zuckerberg presented Horizon TV, a fresh entertainment platform exclusive to Quest headsets. Emphasizing the potential boom in video content consumption via virtual reality devices and smart glasses, Meta has forged partnerships with prominent streaming providers. Disney+ is among these collaborators, offering VR headset users access to the Marvel Cinematic Universe, as well as shows from ESPN and Hulu.

From Zuckerberg’s demonstration, the Horizon TV interface promises an array of accessible streaming applications. Besides Disney+, Meta has allied with Prime Video, Spotify, Peacock, and Twitch. This collaboration expands viewing options to include popular series like 'The Boys' and upcoming titles like 'Fallout'. Meta further collaborates with Universal Pictures and the renowned horror film company Blumhouse, ensuring that horror enthusiasts can experience movies such as 'M3GAN' and 'The Black Phone' with unique VR-enhanced special effects.

Horizon TV is equipped to offer an audio-visual treat with Dolby Atmos for immersive surround sound. Additionally, Dolby Vision will soon be introduced, promising enhanced visual clarity with vivid colors and detailed imagery. In collaboration with James Cameron’s Lightstorm Vision, Horizon TV also provides a special 3D preview of 'Avatar: Fire and Ash', available for a limited duration. This unique feature accentuates Meta’s commitment to delivering unparalleled VR content experiences.
