# VR Mission EXT vs Re

The clearest difference is rating: Re at 4.7 against VR Mission EXT's 4.1. Re also leads on update cadence (every 10 days vs every 4 months) and ratings volume (513 vs 13). VR Mission EXT's advantage is ads (none vs shown) and review sentiment (92% vs 82%). On price, in-app purchases, monetization model and device support there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. VR Mission EXT sells 9 one-off in-app purchases and Re sells 6 one-off in-app purchases. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

Re holds the better App Store score, 4.7 against 4.1. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Re has 513 ratings behind it against 13, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 92% of VR Mission EXT's written reviews are positive against 82% of Re's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

VR Mission EXT ships an update every 4 months, Re every 10 days. The most recent releases landed on October 23, 2026 and October 24, 2026 respectively.
