Meta changes course on Horizon Worlds VR shut-down

VR Worlds will be available for "foreseeable future"

@jank0 Very frustrating that they killed Echo Arena, but then this piece of crap that nobody liked or wanted still will exist in a panel on my display whenever I turn on my Quest 2.

@jank0 Revising my position on this after hearing your explanation on TWiT. I’m glad that Meta didn’t pull the rug on the users who did find Horizon Worlds valuable for the purposes you reported. It seems like VR Chat would have been a better venue for them, but at least Meta didn’t destroy people’s creations (for now).
