Meta's 'Avalanche' VR Cloud Streaming System Is Now Listed On The Store

Meta's 'Avalanche' VR cloud streaming system, long in development, has been listed on the Quest's Horizon Store, though it is not yet available for download or purchase. The app, which can be wishlisted, was uploaded around July 24, 2024. The store page mentions testing the latest cloud streamed titles and features images of popular games like Lone Echo, Beat Saber, and the Unreal Engine's City Sample. While there is no direct confirmation of an imminent launch, signs like a firmware finding and experimental settings hint that Meta might be working on enabling cloud VR streaming to bring PC VR games to Quest. 'Avalanche' has been in development since at least 2020, with earlier findings and tests by dataminers and users. However, challenges such as internet connection quality and latency remain concerns for cloud streaming. Despite these obstacles, the listing might indicate that Meta is closer to introducing Avalanche, potentially opening access to a broader audience.
