Supernatural Returns This Fall at $180 a Year as Meta Spins Off VR Fitness App

3 articles · Updated · CNET · Jun 3

Summary

  • $180 a year or $20 a month will be the new price when Supernatural relaunches this fall under independent company Supernatural Health, up from $100 annually or $10 monthly under Meta.
  • Dec. 3 is the cutoff for the existing app: current subscriptions will end, no new workouts or songs are being added, and users will have to move to the new app.
  • Supernatural Health says all coaches are returning and promises new content plus features shaped by community feedback, though it has not given a precise launch date or release cadence.
  • The spinout follows Meta's earlier retreat from supporting Supernatural and other parts of its VR app ecosystem, a pullback that had angered the app's user community.
