Bogo, the cherished virtual reality pet app, will no longer be playable after March 15. Meta Quest team has informed Bogo owners that support for the game will end on Friday, March 15, 2024, at 11:59 PM PT.

Bogo was introduced in 2019 as a free Oculus app, offering a fun virtual reality experience where players could care for their own alien-like virtual pet. Despite its simplicity, Bogo provided hours of entertainment through activities like playing fetch, feeding, and mini-games.

The decision to discontinue Bogo has left players saddened and puzzled, especially since the game can be played offline. While Meta hasn't clarified the reason for the shutdown, it is believed that upcoming OS updates may make the game incompatible with Meta VR devices.

Meta's Discontinuation Strategy

Shutting down Bogo is part of Meta's broader plan to stop supporting various VR games. Titles like Dead and Buried and its sequel will also be discontinued on March 15. Unlike Bogo, Dead and Buried 2 was a paid game, raising concerns among players about potential financial losses from future shutdowns.

As Bogo enthusiasts prepare to bid farewell, they can still enjoy the game for a few more days. While Bogo will soon be gone, there are other free VR games to explore and relish.
