Meta Quest will no longer support Chromecast.

Until now, people using the virtual reality headsets could directly beam the VR gameplay to a Chromecast dongle if it was connected to the same Wi-Fi network.


However, the latest v60 software update has removed the option as reported by Android Central and several Reddit users.

Meta has yet to address the change publicly via a statement, but the official documentation for the headsets has been updated.


It now reads: “Chromecast is not fully supported with Meta Quest.”

Instead, users are now advised to cast the VR from your headset to the Meta Quest app — for either iOS or Android — and then to a Chromecast.

Meanwhile, the VR happenings can also be cast to a computer using the Meta Quest website.

As it stands, it’s not known why this feature has been taken away from its headsets.
