Meta Horizon+ November 2026: PAYDAY, Reach and I Am Monkey

Meta announced the November 2026 lineup for Meta Horizon+, its Quest game subscription, on October 30, 2026 (Meta Quest blog). Two games join the catalog, two games can be claimed, three free-to-play games get member add-ons, and three adventure games are discounted for members. This guide lists each one, what it normally costs on VRDB as of November 4, 2026, which headsets it runs on, and what to claim before November 30, 2026.

What Meta Horizon+ includes in November 2026

Meta’s post for November 2026 covers four groups of content (Meta Quest blog):

The subscription costs $7.99 a month or $59.99 a year, and Meta offers a one-month trial, with “eligibility and auto-renewal terms” applying (Meta Quest blog). The yearly plan works out to about $5.00 a month. You must be at least 13 to subscribe, or 14 in Canada, South Korea, Spain and Québec (Meta Horizon+ help).

PAYDAY: Aces High joins the catalog on November 5, 2026

PAYDAY: Aces High is a four-player heist shooter from Fast Travel Games. Meta’s lineup post says it joins the Horizon+ catalog on its launch day, so subscribers can start playing as soon as it releases (Meta Quest blog). The Meta Horizon Store lists the launch for November 5, 2026 at 7 AM PST, and the VRDB page shows the same time, a Mature 17+ rating and Quest 3 and Quest 3S as the only platforms.

Meta gives the price as $24.99 for anyone who buys it outright (Meta Quest blog, playtest post). For a Quest 3 or 3S owner, that makes the first month of Horizon+ cheaper than buying the game, as long as you only want to play it while subscribed. Our PAYDAY: Aces High launch guide covers the crew roles, the Steam version and the launch time in other time zones.

Assassin’s Creed Nexus VR in the Horizon+ catalog

Meta says Assassin’s Creed Nexus VR joins the catalog during November 2026 and gives no exact day (Meta Quest blog). VRDB’s Horizon+ catalog page, which is checked once a day against the Meta Horizon Store, already listed it on November 4, 2026.

Ubisoft’s stealth and parkour game takes you through Renaissance Italy, Ancient Greece and Colonial America (Meta Quest blog). On its VRDB page it costs $39.99, holds a 4.3 star rating from about 5,500 ratings, carries a Teen rating and runs on Quest 2, Quest Pro, Quest 3 and Quest 3S. Its lowest tracked price is $19.99, from December 16, 2024.

Catalog games are not yours to keep. You can play them while you are subscribed and while they stay in the catalog, and Meta adds and removes catalog games over time (Meta Horizon+ help, Meta Horizon+ Terms).

Monthly games to claim in November 2026: Reach and I Am Monkey

The two monthly games work differently from the catalog. You claim them during the month they are offered, and they then stay in your library for as long as your subscription lasts (Meta Horizon+ help). If you cancel, you lose access to them; if you subscribe again later, every game you claimed comes back (Meta Horizon+ help). Because Meta says the games must be claimed in the month they are offered, Reach and I Am Monkey need claiming by November 30, 2026.

Together the two games cost $44.98 on VRDB as of November 4, 2026 (Reach, I Am Monkey). That is more than five months of Horizon+ at $7.99 a month, which comes to $39.95 (Meta Quest blog).

Reach

Reach is a fantasy adventure from nDreams Elevation, published by nDreams, with climbing, puzzles, magical tools and combat across realities (Meta Quest blog). Its VRDB page shows $29.99, a 4.2 star rating from 535 ratings, a Teen rating and a Moderate comfort level. Its lowest tracked price is $17.99, from October 23, 2026.

Check your headset first: the VRDB page lists Reach for Quest 3 and Quest 3S only, not Quest 2 or Quest Pro.

I Am Monkey

I Am Monkey, from New Folder Games, puts you in the cage of a zoo monkey. It is a physics sandbox where you can cause trouble for visitors and zookeepers (Meta Quest blog). On its VRDB page it costs $14.99 and has a 4.8 star rating from about 29,900 ratings, more than any other catalog or monthly game in November 2026: Assassin’s Creed Nexus VR has about 5,500, Reach has 535, and PAYDAY: Aces High has none as of November 4, 2026 because it launches on November 5, 2026. It is rated Teen, has a Moderate comfort level and runs on Quest 2, Quest Pro, Quest 3 and Quest 3S. Its lowest tracked price is $8.99, from July 21, 2026.

Free add-ons for VRFS, IRONSTRIKE and Orion Drift

All three games are free to download on the Meta Horizon Store, according to their VRDB pages, and Meta lists these items for members in November 2026 (Meta Quest blog):

• VRFS: Soccer: a new character kit, a unique ball and in-game currency (Meta does not give the amount).
• IRONSTRIKE: an armor set and helmet plus 150 units of in-game currency.
• Orion Drift: the second of five cosmetic items in the Streetwise bundle plus 1,000 Driftium.

If you play any of the three, these are worth picking up while you are subscribed.

Horizon+ member deals: The 7th Guest VR, Down the Rabbit Hole, Escaping Wonderland

Members get three discounts in November 2026 (Meta Quest blog). Unlike the monthly games, these are purchases you keep. Meta’s post gives no end date for them. VRDB tracks the regular store price, so the member price shows only in the store for subscribers; the figures below are worked out from VRDB’s regular prices on November 4, 2026.

The 7th Guest VR is Vertigo Games’ VR version of the 1990s puzzle mystery game, according to its store text on VRDB. At about $6.00 it would be below its lowest tracked price on VRDB. It holds a 4.6 star rating from 882 ratings and works on Quest 2 and newer.

Down the Rabbit Hole and Escaping Wonderland are Cortopia Studios’ two Alice in Wonderland puzzle adventures, both published by Beyond Frames Entertainment and both rated for younger players (Everyone 10+ and Everyone, according to their VRDB pages). Escaping Wonderland at about $9.00 would beat its lowest tracked price. Down the Rabbit Hole has been cheaper before: VRDB recorded $7.99 on June 26, 2026, so this deal is good but not its best.

Is Meta Horizon+ worth $7.99 a month in November 2026?

For a Quest 3 or Quest 3S owner, November 2026 has a lot in it. PAYDAY: Aces High alone costs $24.99 to buy, and the two monthly games add up to $44.98 on VRDB. A one-month trial, where you are eligible, covers all of it. Meta says eligibility and auto-renewal terms apply to the trial, so check the renewal date in your subscription settings if you only want the free month (Meta Quest blog).

For a Quest 2 owner, the value is smaller. PAYDAY: Aces High and Reach are listed for Quest 3 and 3S only on VRDB, which leaves Assassin’s Creed Nexus VR, I Am Monkey, the add-ons and the three deals.

Keep in mind that everything except the member deals depends on staying subscribed. If you would rather own a game outright, watch its VRDB page or the VRDB on-sale list for a discount instead. Assassin’s Creed Nexus VR has been as low as $19.99 and I Am Monkey as low as $8.99. The Horizon+ catalog page shows every game in the catalog, checked once a day against the Meta Horizon Store.

What to claim before November 30, 2026

1. Claim Reach and I Am Monkey before the end of November 2026, even if you will not play them yet. Claiming costs nothing extra, and once claimed they stay in your library for as long as you keep the subscription or return to it (Meta Horizon+ help).
2. On November 5, 2026, download PAYDAY: Aces High from the catalog if you have a Quest 3 or 3S.
3. Pick up the add-ons for VRFS: Soccer, IRONSTRIKE and Orion Drift if you play them.
4. If you want a puzzle game to keep, The 7th Guest VR at 70% off is the strongest of the three member deals against its price history.
