Publisher Wired Productions is finally bringing the popular action-puzzle game, Tin Hearts, to Meta Quest. Tin Hearts debuted on PC, Nintendo Switch, Xbox Series X|S, Xbox One and PlayStation 4 and PlayStation 5 back in 2023. The PC and PlayStation 5 versions were compatible with PC VR headsets and the PSVR 2, respectively, so it’s fitting that Meta Quest should also receive a release of the game.

What is Tin Hearts?
In Tin Hearts, you embark on a story that follows Lemmings-like puzzles to relive the life of genius inventor Albert J. Butterworth. Critically acclaimed for its moving narrative, refined puzzle design, and immersive atmosphere, the game presents a puzzle-adventure where the ghosts of the past emerge to tell a resonating tale of family, love, and compromise.
The gameplay unfolds through a series of diorama-like rooms filled with whimsical toys and intricate mechanical contraptions. You guide a troupe of tiny clockwork soldiers by placing blocks, manipulating devices, and rewinding time to correct mistakes or experiment with new solutions. As you progress, new mechanics appear, each blending seamlessly into the world’s Victorian aesthetic. The puzzles grow in complexity, encouraging you to pause, observe, and plan your route with creativity and patience.
While the gameplay challenges your problem-solving skills, it also weaves story moments directly into the puzzles. You may shift between perspectives or interact with toys that reveal more about Albert’s past. This blend of tactile puzzle-solving and storytelling creates an experience that feels equal parts heartfelt narrative and imaginative.
Tin Hearts for Meta Quest
Tin Hearts will make its long-awaited Meta Quest debut with the release of Act 1 as a standalone episode. This will let you unwrap the touching story at your own pace, with Acts 2, 3 and 4 set to follow in the coming weeks.
“Launching Tin Hearts on Meta Quest feels like coming full circle,” said Leo Zullo, Managing Director at Wired Productions. “The game began as a VR concept, always with Meta Quest in mind, so bringing it home to the platform this Christmas feels incredibly special. With so many players finding new headsets under their Christmas trees, there couldn’t be a more perfect time to share this magical world.”
Launch Date
Tin Hearts on Meta Quest 3 and Meta Quest 3S is releasing the first act on 11th December 11th, 2025, priced at £3.99 GBP. No specific dates have been revealed for the subsequent episodes, nor the pricing structure.
