Beat Saber help is ending on PS VR and PS VR2
It is the top of the road for Beat Saber on PS VR and PS VR2. Whilst you’ll nonetheless be capable to purchase and play the bottom recreation on each platforms, in addition to any songs and music packs that had been launched earlier than at this time (June 18), Beat Video games is winding down help for these variations. They will not get any new songs or music packs. As such, the ultimate music that turned obtainable for Beat Saber on PS VR and PS VR2 was “Abracadabra.”
Furthermore, the PlayStation variations of Beat Saber will lose their multiplayer options on January 21 subsequent yr. Beat Video games says that it’ll nonetheless present buyer help to gamers on these platforms.
“As we glance to the long run and plan the subsequent massive leap for Beat Saber, we now have made the choice to now not launch updates for PS4 and PS5 beginning in June 2025,” Beat Video games wrote in and . “Our ardour for VR stays unwavering. We’re excited concerning the potentialities that lie forward and what we will convey to Beat Saber followers who’ve been on this journey with us over the previous seven years.”
This modification does not impression the Steam VR model of Beat Saber. New songs, music packs and options are nonetheless coming to Beat Saber on Steam and Meta Quest platforms.
Meta purchased Beat Video games . In impact, the corporate is ceasing Beat Saber improvement on platforms that its personal headsets
It is almost certainly that Meta and Beat Video games are ending their efforts on PlayStation variations of Beat Saber as a result of they’re now not seeing sufficient of a return on funding (although ending multiplayer help is an odd transfer). By all accounts, Meta Quest headsets have far outsold PS VR2 models.
It may very well be argued that Sony hasn’t absolutely gotten behind its personal platform. By my rely, there are fewer than two dozen PS VR2-exclusive video games. The latest featured just one (non-exclusive) recreation for the platform, Thief VR: Legacy of Shadow. So, it is perhaps not shocking that Meta is pulling the plug on Beat Saber on PlayStation’s VR headsets.

In any case, Beat Saber is modable on PC (and Meta Quest), and there are literally thousands of obtainable.
