Description
Beat Saber is a rhythmic, virtual reality game where you slash blocks to the beat of music. Each of your controllers acts as a red or blue light saber. The game comes with a group of songs, but you can purchase additional packs for Green Day, BTS, Timbaland and more. You select the difficulty level as well as the song for game play. Depending on the level, blocks will appear in different numbers and arrangements in sync with the tunes.
Beat Saber is available for most, popular HMDs like Meta Quest 2 and Playstation VR.
