New Quest 3 games this month
The Lightkeepers
The Lightkeepers is a co-op Lovecraft action game and one of the small-team standouts of 2026. It is about $19.99 at the time of writing. It is an online game, so it is the pick of the month for playing with others and not one for the offline list.
Verdict: the strongest new co-op release on Quest right now.
Be A Chameleon
Be A Chameleon is about $7.99 and carries a 4.9 rating, which is remarkable for a game from a tiny team. It is the kind of odd, focused indie idea the Quest store does best, and it fits into our best Quest 3 games under $10 list.
Verdict: cheap, strange and very well liked.
Centipede VR
Centipede VR is an arcade revival in Early Access at about $14.99. Early Access means it is still changing, so check the store page for what the current build includes.
Verdict: worth watching, and worth buying if you love the arcade original.
Roboquest VR
Roboquest VR arrived on Quest in July 2026 and has settled in at about $29.99 with a 4.7 rating. It is a fast roguelite shooter against robots with 2-player co-op, and solo runs hold up well. It has the deepest unlock loop on this page. We also rank it in our best single-player Quest 3 games list.
Verdict: the best new shooter of the summer, still new enough to count.

Newly discounted Quest games
Townsmen VR
Townsmen VR is a seated-friendly city builder that is about $7.99 on sale from $29.99, which is the deepest cut on this page. If you have wanted a calm sit-down game for the headset, this is the month. It appears in our best seated VR games list.
Verdict: the best discount on Quest this month.
Alex and the Jets
Alex and the Jets is an arcade jet shooter, about $4.99 on sale from $6.99, rated 4.8 from 245 reviews. Simple, fast, cheap, and a good first flying game.
Verdict: an easy yes at the sale price.
UNDERDOGS
UNDERDOGS is about $19.99 on sale from $29.99. The arm-driven mech brawler from One Hamsa holds a 4.8 rating from 3.2K reviews and is one of the best single player games on the platform. If you have been waiting for a sale, this is it.
Verdict: buy it, then come back for our mech list.
MECHA this month
No major update to report for MECHA this month. It is still about $9.99, single player only, and runs with no internet required on Quest 2, 3, 3S and Pro. We will say more about the next changes when they are ready. If you are new to it, our MECHA game modes guide is the best place to start.
FAQ
What are the upcoming Quest 3 games to watch?
We only list games that are already on the store, so we do not track release dates here. Centipede VR is in Early Access and will keep changing, which is the closest thing to upcoming on this page.
Are there new VR games this week specifically?
We update monthly rather than weekly. The items above are what is new or newly discounted as of mid-September 2026.
Do new Meta Quest games work on Quest 3S?
Yes. Quest 3S runs the same library as Quest 3 on the same chip, with lower-resolution lenses.
Which of the new Quest 3 games is best for one player?
Roboquest VR among the new releases, and UNDERDOGS among the sales. Both have progression that carries between sessions.
