In December 2018 the Echo VR lobby was dressed for the holidays: trees, presents, lights, snow and a holiday portal. This fan project brings those pieces back into today's lobby on PC and on Quest. Every view below is the same spot in the lobby, seen three ways.
Pictures updated 4 November 2026
The main hall where everyone spawns: the tree, the presents, the lights overhead and the holiday portal in the middle.




























































































The Arena side of the lobby.














The Combat side of the lobby. The 2018 lobby was laid out a little differently here, so some views do not line up.








































































Left of the slider: the 2018 Christmas lobby. Right: today's lobby on PC with the holiday pieces added back. Drag the slider, or use the arrow keys on it, to compare. Where a Quest picture exists, the second button shows today's PC lobby next to the Quest. The Quest pictures are a preview from a test build that is not yet released; they will be taken again from the first released Quest build.
All pictures are taken from the same spot and direction on each side, at the lowest PC graphics setting. Quest pictures are lined up onto the PC picture and both are cut to the part they share.
Some parts of the lobby were rebuilt between 2018 and today. Where that makes a view differ, the picture says so. Small differences in lettering (for example today's MATCHMAKING TERMINAL sign next to the 2018 MATCHMAKING lettering) come from today's lobby, not from the holiday pieces.
Pictures update as the work goes on: what you see is the newest test, not a finished release.
