Meta Horizon Worlds is an online multi-player game developed and published by Meta Platforms. Users can build and publish environments and games on the platform. Horizon Worlds was released on December 2021. Initially designed for virtual reality headsets as part of the QuestVR platform, a mobile version was released in September 2023, and in February 2026 Meta announced it would separate Worlds from QuestVR to primarily focus on the mobile version.
In February 2022, Meta reported Horizon Worlds had an estimated 300,000 users; yet, by October 2022, The Wall Street Journal was reporting fewer than 200,000 monthly users. Horizon Worlds has received mixed reviews, with critics citing bugs and an unenjoyable environment that degrades the user experience.
