Disney+ Now Streams 60+ Movies in 3D on Meta Quest 3 and 3S

Quick summary: If you own a Meta Quest 3S or Meta Quest 3, your Disney+ app just got a lot more interesting. As of November 10, subscribers in select countries can stream more than 60 movies in 3D and watch from themed virtual environments like Tatooine or the Monsters, Inc. Scare Floor. It’s included with your subscription.

Key takeaways

• The upgrade is live now for Meta Quest 3 and Quest 3S in select countries, through the Disney+ app on the Meta Horizon Store.
• 60+ movies are available in 3D, including Marvel’s The Avengers and Black Panther, according to Meta and Disney.
• Immersive environments let you watch from places like Avengers Tower, Tatooine and the Scare Floor.
• No extra charge. It’s part of your Disney+ subscription. Premium subscribers get select titles in Dolby Vision and Dolby Atmos, depending on region and plan.
• Meta VR Glasses get the same Disney+ 3D experience when they launch in spring 2027, plus IMAX Enhanced content.

What’s actually new

Disney+ already had an app on Quest, but it was a flat, 2D experience. UploadVR points out that Disney’s 3D catalog had been exclusive to Apple Vision Pro until now. That’s the real headline for me. You don’t need Apple’s headset to get Disney’s 3D library anymore.

Disney says Quest 3 and Quest 3S owners in select countries can now:

1. Stream select Disney+ movies in 3D
2. Watch inside virtual viewing environments themed around Marvel, Star Wars, Pixar and more
3. Watch Hulu content through the Disney+ app, if you have the bundle
4. Get Dolby Vision and Dolby Atmos on select titles with a Premium subscription

Meta’s examples of environments include watching Star Wars: A New Hope from Tatooine, the Avengers fighting Loki from atop Avengers Tower, and a Pixar movie night on the Monsters, Inc. Scare Floor.

Which movies are in 3D?

Neither company published the full list in their announcements, but Polygon went through the catalog. Their rundown:

• Star Wars: Episodes VII through IX, Rogue One and The Mandalorian and Grogu. Polygon notes A New Hope is expected to get the 3D treatment later.
• Marvel: most of the movies, including all the Avengers films and the Guardians of the Galaxy trilogy
• Pixar: titles including Toy Story 5 and Incredibles 2
• Others: the Avatar trilogy, Frozen 2 and the most recent Tron movies

UploadVR also mentions the live-action Beauty and the Beast. Disney and Meta both note that availability varies by country, so some titles may not show up in 3D where you live.

How to get it

There’s nothing to buy. Meta says the upgraded Disney+ is available now on the Meta Horizon Store. Install Disney+ from the Store, or update it if you already have it, and sign in with your Disney+ account. A Disney+ subscription is required, and Disney says you must be 18+ to subscribe.

What about Meta VR Glasses?

Meta and Disney both say the Disney+ 3D experience comes to Meta VR Glasses when they launch in spring 2027. Meta says those glasses have a 5K micro-OLED display. Disney says they’ll also be the first IMAX Enhanced-certified VR device, with IMAX Enhanced titles like Avengers: Endgame and Tron: Ares. Polygon lists them at $1,299.99.

My take

This is one of those updates that makes a headset you already own better for free. Quest 3S is the cheaper way in, and 3D Marvel and Star Wars on a giant virtual screen is a much easier sell to the family than another VR game. If you were waiting for a reason to pull your Quest out of the drawer before the holidays, this is a good one.

If you don’t have a headset yet, Meta’s store was showing the Quest 3S from $349.99 and the Quest 3 at $599.99 when I checked on November 12. Neither was discounted. If you game too, there’s a Quest 3S + Xbox controller bundle. Prices change fast, so check the current price before you buy.
