Supernatural Relaunches on Its Own, With a $20 Monthly Price

Supernatural is back as an independent Early Access app with thousands of remastered workouts and a monthly price roughly double the old one.

Supernatural, the VR fitness game Meta said it would stop making new content for, has relaunched as an independent app, and it costs about twice as much as before.

The app launched today as an Early Access preview in the Meta Horizon Store. Early Access means the product is available but still unfinished. It includes thousands of "remastered" workouts and some new ones, according to the developers. Subscriptions rise from $9.99 per month to $20 per month, or $200 per year. The price increase was announced earlier.

The annual plan works out to $16.67 a month, a saving of $40 compared with paying monthly for a year. That is a modest nudge toward a longer commitment, and it asks for more trust than usual from a product still labeled a preview.

The developers said new workouts will arrive every week, starting the week after the relaunch. They also wrote that more back-catalog favorites will return "in the weeks and months ahead." That wording suggests the library is not yet fully restored, even with thousands of workouts available.

For subscribers, the pitch is straightforward: the content pipeline Meta said it was ending is running again, this time under the app's own team. The app is still sold through Meta's storefront, so the independence is operational rather than a break from the platform.

The open question is whether a weekly release schedule and a returning back catalog justify $20 a month for a fitness habit that lives inside a headset. The cadence is a promise for now, and Early Access gives the developers room to adjust it.
