Reddit users have reported that Meta has gradually removed traces of the early Oculus Rift era in updates over the past few months, and last year, Meta officially ended chat support for the Oculus Rift platform. In the update last month, some users pointed out that after the system update, the entrance to the Oculus Home VR virtual birth point scene was removed. Currently, the VR virtual scene can only be accessed again by manually deploying and installing the software.
Meta’s support agent responded to Reddit user u/noobdude752 stating that “Meta is discontinuing support for the old Oculus software experience in the Rift software and hopes to bring some of the features in Oculus Home to future new products (Note: Meta’s Horizon Home series application).
Foreign media UploadVR is trying to get in touch with Meta, asking for clarification and more details about the status of Oculus Home on PC, and asking about the status of the previously announced Horizon Home on Quest additional customization features. But so far Meta has not responded.
Oculus Home is the original interactive default birth point room scene in the Oculus Rift era. Players can use various furniture and achievement decorations obtained in the process of playing Oculus games to decorate their own rooms, and they can also play in the room Some archery, painting and other small games. In the era of Oculus Quest, the original default birth point room of the Quest platform cannot be interacted with, but players can connect to the Oculus client on the computer through the AirLink software to open the original Oculus Home, but it is no longer as intuitive as the Rift era.
