I was confused about this line at first: 'When Tim Cook unveils Apple’s new “mixed-reality” headset later this year'

If I'm understanding correctly: there's AR glasses that were expected, which are not happening this year, and then separately, there's a mixed-reality headset (ie VR with some exterior cameras) that apparently is happening for sure this year

I'm curious if Beat Saber is ever going to come to the device.. Like did Meta acquire it just for the potential to force some concessions from Apple? The Quest can show notifications from your phone, but the integration is overall terrible and I think Apple knows that having that tight integration is a Big Deal

(which conversely might mean they'll never accept any terms whatsoever to get Beat Saber on apple mixed reality)
