Just as baseball season hits its stride, basketball heats up and the global soccer spotlight begins to shine brighter, DIRECTV is stepping into the future of entertainment. With its debut on Meta Quest headsets, DIRECTV is bringing live TV, sports, movies and on-demand favorites into a virtual reality experience.
As the first MVPD (multichannel video programming distributor) to launch on the Meta Quest headsets, DIRECTV is expanding how—and where—people watch TV. Instead of being tied to a traditional screen, viewers can step into a virtual space and enjoy their favorite content in a more immersive way.
Don’t have DIRECTV yet? Let’s change that!
A New Reality for Watching TV
Now available in the Meta Horizon Store and in Meta Horizon TV, Meta Quest turns the DIRECTV experience into a virtual viewing space, placing you in a virtual reality watch environment with a large, theater-like display.
Whether you’re keeping tabs on a close game, watching a new series or checking out new movies to stream, you can switch channels, monitor scores and interact with content in real time.
Available on:
- Meta Quest 3 and 3S
- Meta Quest 2

Even better, this experience is available to all Meta Quest users —not just DIRECTV customers—giving more people a chance to explore DIRECTV’s VR offering and access free content via MyFree DIRECTV.
