Beat Saber has been revealed to be coming to PlayStation VR2. This is fantastic news for fans of the popular rhythm game who have been wondering whether the block-slashing fun would be available on the next generation of PlayStation VR devices.
Beat Saber is a popular fixture in the VR landscape despite over four years on the market and lots of competition from newer games, thanks to simple gameplay, a high skill ceiling, and plenty of officials and community support. While it has been playable on the original PS VR since its debut, Meta’s acquisition of developer Beat Games in 2019 raised the issue of whether the game will ever be released on Sony’s future VR headset, or whether further releases would be limited to the former Facebook’s line of Meta Quest devices.
It has since been verified that this will not be the case. Sony revealed at the Consumer Electronics Show this week that Beat Saber would be coming to the PlayStation VR2. Additionally than that, no other specifics have been published at this time, although it’s a guarantee that they will at some point. It’s only a matter of when that will happen.
Some people will undoubtedly want additional answers. For example, it’s unclear when Beat Saber will be released for the next-generation VR gear. It’s likely that it’ll be part of the PlayStation VR2’s launch selection when it launches on February 22, or it might arrive later this year.
There’s also the issue of whether Beat Games would give a free upgrade to people who possess the original PS VR version of the game, or if the port will make use of any of the PS VR2’s unique capabilities, such as eye tracking in the headset or haptic feedback in the controllers. For the time being, fans will have to be pleased with the fact that a port is in the works.
