The new independent version of VR fitness app Supernatural launched in Early Access on Meta Quest.
The team of 15 people behind the re-launch of Supernatural includes all of the fitness coaches who were with the prior iteration, as well as some of the design and support staff.
As recently reported by UploadVR, the app is launching with “thousands of workouts”. Users of the previous, Meta-owned “legacy edition” can “transfer their points, start date, streaks, favorites and badges from the original app through Dec. 3”, according to Supernatural.
In an email to users who registered for the new version, Supernatural provided details on how to transfer history by visiting a dedicated page on their website.
“It’s not every day you get to make a comeback, but thanks to the Supernatural community, that’s exactly what we’re doing,” said Supernatural CEO James Senior in a press statement. “Early Access gets Supernatural back into members’ hands now, so we can build what comes next with them. We’ll be adding new workouts every week, bringing back more music and building features like Supernatural Together and a new mobile app. This is just the start.”
Supernatural says its future roadmap includes adding more workouts and music, reintroducing multiplayer workouts, new enhanced environments, and a new mobile companion app to track workout progress and heart rate.
I was able to download the new app today and confirm that there are many workouts already available from the previous app’s catalog. The UI is slightly updated and a bit more colorful in places. Gameplay appears identical. I will do a deeper dive as new features launch and bring you those impressions here.
The new Supernatural is available to download today on the Meta Quest store. A subscription to the service is $19.99 monthly or $199.99 annually.
