XR Games, the creative team known for titles like Hitman 3 VR: Reloaded (2024) and Starship Troopers Continuum (2024), is back with an exciting new project for the Quest called BEATABLE. This innovative rhythm game uses hand-tracking technology to transform any tabletop into a musical playground.
When virtual reality merges with your physical space, the result is often incredibly immersive. BEATABLE enhances this experience by turning your table into a musical instrument. Imagine being able to tap, snap, and clap in rhythm using just your hands. This introduces a form of “real-world haptics” that traditional controller-based rhythm games just can’t match.
Forget about reaching for controllers because BEATABLE relies solely on hand-tracking technology. It promises a fast, easy calibration process to ensure that your motions are captured accurately and responsively, crucial for hitting those beats perfectly.
Renowned VR YouTuber and rhythm action aficionado ‘Naysy’ is on board to assist XR Games. She provides gameplay insights during the development process and even makes an appearance in the game’s trailer.
“I haven’t been this hooked on a rhythm game for quite some time. I’m a huge fan of VR rhythm games, and BEATABLE offers a fresh take on the genre,” Naysy shares. “The blend of physical interaction with hand-tracking makes perfect sense, creating an incredibly fun and immersive experience. I’m enamored with this game and eagerly await others to enjoy it too.”
Mark your calendars: BEATABLE is set to launch in early access on April 10th for Quest 2 and newer models. You can jump in early with the pre-order price offering a 10% discount, making the game just $9.
