Plenty of VR developers have been making use of Meta Quest 3’s extra performance to improve their Quest 2 games. The latest to do so is AMATA K.K., releasing Quest 3 upgrades for Last Labyrinth and The Tale of Onogoro this week.

Last Labyrinth was the studio’s first VR title, released in 2019. In an escape-the-room game built specifically for VR, players find themselves bound to a wheelchair. They have to escape a mansion filled with deadly traps, but this can only be achieved by guiding a mysterious girl named Katia, who is unable to speak or understand their language.

The Tale of Onogoro is a far more action-based experience released in 2022. Combining traditional Japanese culture and steampunk elements, players travel with Haru, a Japanese high priestess, solving sprawling puzzles and battling giant beast-like beings called “Kami” along the way.
