About the game

A VR rhythm game developed by Beat Games, a studio later acquired by Oculus Studios (now Meta). In a surreal neon-lit space, you slice through blocks representing the music's beats with sabers in two colors. It launched in Early Access in May 2018 and fully released on PC and PS4 in May 2019, and it also runs standalone on Meta Quest. It's one of the best-selling VR games of all time.

Why we recommend it

The rule is simple: slash the beat blocks flying at you with the lightsabers in each hand. But because you move your whole body, the feel and the workout are something else.

Good for — Great for: anyone with a VR headset who wants to enjoy music while working up a sweat
