The Meta Quest 2 provides a variety of excellent virtual reality titles for you to choose from, but it can be hard to play any game if you fail to charge your controllers. The headset that comes with this system also provides one controller for each hand that connects to produce an immersive experience. Keeping each controller active gives you complete freedom to manipulate worlds created within virtual reality titles.

Some consoles sell separate charging stations for their controllers, both wired and wireless in some cases. The Meta Quest 2 has additional products you could purchase that automatically charge your controllers in a dock designed to reactivate your virtual reality devices. With different sales for Meta Quest 2 that happen occasionally, this might be an option worth considering.
