Beat Saber’s Multiplayer Mode Now Live On PSVR

After nearly a year-long delay, Beat Saber’s multiplayer mode is now live on PSVR. 

Today, the mode allows five-player multiplayer for the highly acclaimed rhythm game. Players cut through colored blocks in order to follow the music. Public matches allow players to play with other players all around the world. Private matches let them face their friends. 

Any song from the PSVR version of Beat Saber’s soundtrack can be selected, as can DLC music packs from artists like Linkin Park and more. With this update, you’ll also be able to create and customize your very own multiplayer avatar. The avatar will be displayed in Beat Saber’s multiplayer lobby.

Launching with this update today, Multiplayer Badges have been added to the game, and these let opponents see who’s best at what. For example, one player might earn a badge for “most precise slicer” after a match, while another might receive a badge for being the slowest slicer. New customizable colors have also been added for matches with up to five participants. If you don’t want to slice the game’s standard red and blue blocks, you can switch it up to yellow and purple, teal and pink, or something else entirely. 

With this multiplayer update launching so close to Halloween, a new song – “Spooky Beat” by Jaroslav Beck – has been added to the game for free.
