Supernatural Revival: Show Not Dead After All

A few months ago, Meta seemed to deliver a death blow to Supernatural, the widely loved VR fitness title on the Meta Quest platform. The company announced it would cease producing new content for the game, a move tied to broader VR layoffs that left its fiercely loyal community outraged. But now, the story has taken an unexpected turn. Today, Meta revealed in a community post that Supernatural is being revived, spinning off into an independent company later this year.

The new venture will be called Supernatural Health, launching as a separate app on the Meta Horizon Store. While Meta has not disclosed who will serve as CEO of the spin-off, the shift marks a significant change in direction. Instead of being shuttered, the game is being given a second life outside of Meta’s direct control. This decision comes after intense backlash from users who had built their fitness routines around the immersive workouts, with many feeling abandoned by the original shutdown announcement. The move to independence suggests Meta is willing to let the product thrive on its own terms, even as the company continues to restructure its VR operations.
