Quest App Lab Games Finally Recognised (sort of)

When Meta launched App Lab in 2021 it lauded the fact that this alternative distribution method would help developers get their games in the hands of players.

Even so, this opened the floodgates for indie developers and larger studios alike to get their projects on Meta Quest before completion.

As you find out in XR Source’s Operation Wolf Returns review on Quest 2, this recipe hasn’t stood the test of time.
