Beat Saber is a rhythm game with an active twist. The setup is similar to other music games, such as Audiosurf, Guitar Hero, and Rock Band, but instead of controlling a virtual ship or using fake instruments, you slash your way through a song with virtual laser swords. As the music plays, Beat Saber generates patterns of color-coded blocks that you must hit with the right or left controller as they slide towards you. Obstacles also appear that require you to duck or slide away.
