Trombone Champ VR Update Adds Gloves and Quest 3 VR Lenses
A Toot-ally Great Update for a Wacky VR Classic
Trombone Champ: Unflattened! is one of the funniest games you can play in VR. Instead of slicing blocks or dancing, you play cartoonish trombone solos by waving your hands or using controllers. It’s loud, unpredictable, and always fun.
Now, the Get A Grip! update adds exciting features like glove cosmetics, new instrument skins, and post-song performance saving. And to play with sharper vision and less fog, many users are now switching to adjustable Quest 3 prescription lenses.
Let’s break it all down.
What’s New in the Get A Grip! Update?
Save Your Best Songs, Even After You Play
Forget to hit a record? No problem! Trombone Champ now lets you save your performance after the song ends. This makes it easy to:
- Share awesome solos
- Record funny mess-ups
- Upload content for TikTok or YouTube
- Watch yourself improve over time
Hilarious New Glove Cosmetics
Hands are part of the show. Now you can make them even funnier.
New gloves include:
- Cluck Covers: feathered chicken hands
- Glizzy Grabbers: hotdog fingers
- Primate Paws: monkey style
They appear during gameplay and in replays for extra laughs.
Spring-Themed Trombone Skins
Brighten your band with new horns like:
- Moo-sic Maker: cow sounds and spots
- Oink Ensemble: pig squeals
- Tootcan: tropical toucan look
- DO NOT SHIP: it’s strange. Try it.
Each adds its own silly spin on gameplay.
Why Clear Vision Makes Music Better in VR
To follow pitch lines, hit moving notes, or just see menu buttons clearly, you need clean, focused vision. That’s where adjustable VR lenses come in.
They help you play better by replacing bulky glasses inside the headset. These include:
- Adjustable Quest 3 prescription lenses
- Snap-in VR lens kits for Meta Quest
What Are Adjustable VR Lenses?
They’re snap-in lenses designed to match your eyesight. Instead of wearing glasses, you insert these directly into your Quest 3. You adjust the lens power by sliding the up/down buttons on the lens frame, not by twisting or turning dials.
Key Product Selling Points
These VR lenses provide precise correction from 0 to -6D or +3D to -3D, giving users clear, undistorted vision.
They offer:
- Cost savings: no custom lenses needed for each person
- Improved VR experience: better focus, less blur
- Multi-user sharing: adjust power quickly with simple sliding buttons
- Snap-in mounting: no magnets or tools required
- Fog-free sessions: better airflow and fit mean less fog
Perfect for solo play, family sharing, or classroom settings.
