Meta says Supernatural will no longer receive any "new content or feature updates".

While we reported Armature, Twisted Pixel and Sanzaru Games joining the list of studios shut down by Meta, another product acquired by Mark Zuckerberg "will no longer receive new content or feature updates", according to a note posted to the official Supernatural group on Facebook.

Subscribers of the $10/month VR fitness app can still log in and interact with the ghosts of their coaches, like the laugh track on an old TV show, but the trainers who defined the fitness service – humans like Leanne Pedante credited by some of the service's users for saving their lives – will not be making new appearances in Quest headsets.

"What the fuck," wrote one user on the official Supernatural Community group with 60 upvotes. "I am so sorry for all the amazing coaches who are losing jobs and the people in the background. And so upset that the only thing I've consistently loved for exercise is ending. What happens when song license is over?"

Another comment with more than 600 upvotes: "If you're no longer updating the content, there should no longer be a yearly fee. If content is and will remain static, there should be a one time charge."

"As a user since the beginning, I feel like my heart's been ripped out!" wrote another.

Meta directed subscribers with questions to email support.

Article updated after publication to clarify that Supernatural's existing content will remain available.
