Priced at just $299, the Quest 3S is currently available on Amazon as part of a Black Friday bundle that includes the game Batman: Arkham Shadow, a three-month trial of Meta Quest+ and an additional $75 digital credit for Amazon when you use the code QUEST75 at checkout.

The Meta Quest 3S is the perfect VR headset for people on a budget. It misses out on the Quest 3’s better displays and sleeker shape, but you will still at least get a free copy of Batman Arkham Shadow – and save an extra £14.99 at Argos right now.

Save almost $400 on this full VR kit which includes the VIVE Pro 2 headset and controllers. For under $800, you have everything you need to get started with VR. With 5K resolution, the VIVE Pro 2 headset has the best resolution of all the models we've tested.

There's a lot to recommend the Meta Quest 3S for a virtual reality fan. In fact, it's our pick for the best budget VR set. Even if you're investing in a lower-range VR headset, you'll want to have plenty of software to run on it. The Quest 3S has a large app library and it can be used to stream games from a PC.

To sweeten the pot even more, every Quest 3 purchased this month comes bundled with the Batman: Arkham Shadow VR game and a three-month trial of Meta Quest+. In IGN's 8/10 review, Dan Stapleton wrote that "Batman: Arkham Shadow makes most of the Arkham series' defining gameplay work respectably well in VR, and its mystery story pays off."

Now that Meta's Quest 3S is here, the price of the Quest 3 has dropped significantly from $649 to $499. It's an excellent VR headset, but now it's more affordable, which is a definite win. It also comes with the fantastic Batman: Arkham Shadow and 3-month subscription to Quest+ at no extra cost, which we think is exceptional value.

The Meta Quest 3 takes everything good and bad about the Meta Quest 2 and improves on it in every single way. While the newer and more affordable Meta Quest 3S is the better offer for most shoppers, the most premium VR headset in Meta’s range is still the best in terms of size, weight and visual fidelity.

Arkham Shadow, and a three-month trial of Meta Quest+ for $299 at Amazon. This Black Friday bundle deal comes with $75 of free credit with the code QUEST75. Black Friday is the best time of the year to find deals on gaming essentials.
