Wow. Legs. Awesome progress, Zuck. I wasn’t even aware this was still being worked on.

This is the best summary I could come up with:

Meta is adding legs to Quest Avatars in Quest Home — but not Horizon Worlds — in a new beta announced last week in the Meta Community forums (via UploadVR).

Then, yesterday, a forum user named TomCgcmfc reported their avatar had legs.

Users in the Meta Community forum also reported updated menus that allow hand tracking to position and use them (rather than needing direct manipulation).

NyaVR on X posted that they found code references to new settings, including an extended battery mode (via Mixed Reality News).

Tricky enough, apparently, that the legs shown in the Connect keynote last year may have actually been prerecorded motion capture.

A lot of the show will probably be devoted to more details about the new Quest 3 headset, although there might not be much left to the imagination at this point, considering somebody may have already filmed its unboxing.
