Purchased in 2020, sat in my backlog until finally trying it in 2024... I've been such a fool! Great game! Nice graphics, fun gameplay that really picks up as you increase the difficulty (Beginner is good for learning, but a bit slow and boring between targets) ... This game is well deserving of a spot in my rotation next to other VR rhythm giants. Bonus: There's not a ton of fast arm extensions, so I can put my wrist weights on and get yoked while blasting away.

I might not play this as much as beat saber or pistol whip, but it still holds a very special place in my heart. I grew up playing the rock band games so I was elated to hear that harmonix was making a VR game and they delivered wonderfully. The game has a decent selection of songs, some DLC songs, and you can mod in songs so there is a lot of replayability. Itll take you a while before you are playing expert level songs as the game does have a bit of a learning curve but I didnt find it too challenging. The one gripe I have with the game is right before they decided to stop development, they went the beat saber route and started adding super popular songs to buy instead of ones that would actually flow with the game well. Still they did add plenty of free songs that are really good and then you can just mod in whatever you want. 100% would buy again.

One of the best VR rythm shooter games. Sadly the developers left the game and are no longer updating and adding more music packs & content. Modding is still available and the game itself is really good!

This game is Incredibly fun.... I think that if the devs would update the tracking (Which is not great) that this game could be right up there with beatsaber....... Not quite sure why these Dilberts have not addressed the issues yet?.... such as the guns twisting a bit left or right over time. Played on PSVR and Valve Index. Really this game is an unpolished gem, that could be right up there with the best VR games of all time.

Criminally underrated VR rhythm shooter. I like a lot of the OST. The mechanics flow together well and take advantage of VR well. If you're a rhythm game fan I think you'll find the higher difficulty levels very enjoyable, but be aware they are definitely notable jumps in difficulty (I believe Beginner and Standard difficulties don't even use all of the mechanics). It just feels awesome being able to accurately shoot the targets that appear everywhere and do it to the beat. I think the higher difficulty levels in this game are a bit more interesting/engaging than Beat Saber, and it even reminds me of drumming a little bit in the sense that you will have to develop a level of independence between your hands. One other thing I like about this one over Beat Saber and Pistol Whip, two games I would consider the best VR rhythm games, is that I can play it for an extended period without drenching myself in sweat (although there's certainly nothing wrong with a little sweat!) Now, a big huge disclaimer is that the devs have abandoned this game and online leaderboards do not work anymore. If these are important factors to you then I cannot recommend you purchase this game. However, if these are not that important to you, definitely give it a try. The only other downsides I can see in the game are that the environments are not as dynamic as they are in most other VR rhythm games, although one could say that may be distracting, and that the song selection UI is a little too lacking in information in my opinion. Other than that, there are a few mods, including one that lets you download songs in game, a nice modding discord, and a nice amount of custom songs by the community. If you like rhythm games, you'll definitely have a good time with this one.
