A good session with Beat Saber literally leaves me breathless. When I’m in the groove, swinging red and blue sabers to precisely bisect an onslaught of incoming boxes as fast as I can might be as close to the feeling of being a Jedi at a rave as I’ll ever come. This challenging rhythm game is definitely a little light on tracks out of the box, but what’s there is both catchy and highly replayable due to the way its scoring system encourages pinpoint accuracy and followthrough, plus a handful of alternate modes to play them on.

Anyone can play and look cool with this instant-classic VR rhythm game. The PS4 version is great, but the PSVR exclusive content does not offer that much appeal.

Regardless of the platform (PC or PS4) Beat Saber is one of the best VR games ever created. I know that slashing flying cubes with lightsabers might not sound like much fun, but believe me that it is, in no small part thanks to the fact that your movements are recreated in the virtual world perfectly.

The best rhythm game in VR. I honestly don’t get why this market is basically dead.

Amazing game, great modding community but DLC and official song packs are WAYYYYYY too expensive, especially because they allow custom songs tocreatde and distributed by the community.

Un excellent jeu de rythme. Grâce à une excellente performance et aux compositeurs qui y ont contribué, ce jeu est vraiment un incontournable pour les amateurs de jeux musicaux

Beat Saber comes at the end of a really important year for the PSVR, with games like Tetris Effect, Moss, and Astro Bot Rescue Mission giving renewed life to the two-year old device. These games — but especially Beat Saber — are the best evidence for VR being more than a promising but ultimately niche technology. It has mass appeal and gameplay that just about anyone can enjoy.

I like this game.
Beat Saber is the only game, that tricks me into making somewhat of a workout... for 3 hours straight...

Simple, fun, and addictive, Beat Saber has a hook that will immediately grab players and keep them engaged for a long time.

With this PS4 version which skips the modding part of the PC version, Beat Saber brings a new and unsuccessful campaign mode along with some new exclusive tracks. Still, the concept is amazing, the game content is decent and the PS Move are doing great without being perfect.

Music and sweaty lightsaber choreographies merge into an impressive VR experience that unfortunately lacks content and song-import for your favorite music.

Imaginative use of VR to make one of the best new music games of the generation, and which also manages to be the best Star Wars game never made.

modding the game makes it SO MUCH BETTER, but without them the game is still phenomenal!

Nothing ground breaking, but a fun rhythm game. Good game but better with mods.

Отличный геймплей и полное убийство версии для ps4 за счёт невозможности добавления кастомных треков.
Игра есть, но играть в нее ты не можешь...

DO NOT BUY THIS GAME. In it's current state the motion tracking is awful. If you turn on the game and navigate through the PS menus, you'll see how sluggish and unresponsive it becomes. It does NOT happen with any other game, literally just this bag of cat **** **** THIS GAME.
SummaryBeat Saber is a VR rhythm game where your goal is to slash the beats which perfectly fit into precisely handcrafted music.
