Meta’s Latest Update Ends Event Creation on Horizon Worlds

In Brief

Meta, the company behind Horizon Worlds, has decided to discontinue the hosting of dedicated events on its social VR platform.

This decision was made in response to user feedback and a need to improve the overall user experience on the platform.

Horizon Worlds’ events were a way to bring people together in a social VR setting and allow them to interact and engage with each other in a collaborative environment.

Meta’s Latest Update Ends Event Creation on Horizon Worlds

Meta, the company behind Horizon Worlds social VR playscape, has announced that it will no longer allow creators to host dedicated events on its platform. This decision was revealed as part of the company’s latest v109 update notes released on Tuesday. 

While some creators hoped the feature would improve, Meta has apparently determined it’s not meeting the community’s needs. The discontinuation of the event creation tool may have been motivated by a desire to respond to user feedback and enhance the overall user experience on the platform. It is possible that the tool was not meeting users’ expectations and was not contributing positively to the overall experience. While Meta Horizon Worlds has not yet reached its full potential, the company is committed to improving the quality of its metaverse project.

Horizon World’s events were a way to bring people together in a social VR setting. The events could range from concerts and performances to interactive games and activities. By providing a venue for social interaction, Horizon World’s events aimed to create a sense of community and connection.

According to last year’s reports, Horizon Worlds has been struggling to attract users and has also been undergoing a decline in its user base. Meta researchers said that several factors contribute to this issue. Users have reported dissatisfaction with the virtual worlds offered by Horizon Worlds and experienced difficulty finding other users to socialize with. Besides, the cost of the necessary Quest 2 headset may deter some users.

Meta has been trying to drive user engagement on Horizon Worlds by introducing Quests, where users complete in-game missions and earn rewards, and is now allowing teenagers to join the VR platform.
