There is nothing better than a good rhythm match with friends. We’re excited to announce that multiplayer has just arrived in Beat Saber! Challenge your friends or random opponents from all over the world and battle it out together playing your favorite songs in private or public matches with up to 5 people together *. Pick songs from one of our OSTs, other free base game songs, or slow down our music packs from top international artists.
Customize your avatar to be 100% yourself … or maybe create your futuristic virtual alter ego? Before signing up, go to the avatar settings and configure your avatar to express your unique personality and style. We have many customizations to choose from.
But that’s not all, with multiplayer we also bring a lobby and arena type environment that transports you and your challengers to a world of monumental competition. Are you ready for the contest? Alternatively, you can just sit back and watch the competition warm up as an inactive player watching the stadium from above.
Throughout development we have continued to add new tweaks and improvements that are released today as part of this update that will improve your gaming experience, for example:
- Multiplayer badges: How did everyone behave in the game? See who was the more precise or the slowest slicer. Everyone gets the badge they deserve.
- Exciting result screen: Enjoy the fireworks display while celebrating on the side-by-side winners podium.
- Possibility to define custom colors in multiplayer: Choose your favorite custom colors for cubes and sabers.
As part of this update, we’re also releasing a Halloween Special – a brand new free song, “Spooky Beat” by Jaroslav Beck set in a Halloween environment. You can also select this track in multiplayer, challenge your friends and have spooky fun!
We would like to thank the PS VR community who have patiently supported us since we started multiplayer development. It was a complex feature to develop and we’re excited to finally be able to share it with all of you and welcome new players online. See you in multiplayer!
* PlayStation Plus is required to play Beat Saber Multiplayer.
