Alright, so, listen. I found out that the universe of Beat Saber is closing some doors for PlayStation folks. Noticed this while sipping my morning coffee — and yeah, I almost spilled it. So, here’s the deal: Beat Saber, the game that makes you feel like a rhythm ninja, is hitting pause on any new updates for PSVR and PSVR 2. Almost blurted out an “Oh no” in public.
The masterminds at Beat Games dropped the news on X, which, by the way, is still a strange name for what used to be Twitter. They’re eyeing a leap into the future, waving goodbye to updates for PS4 and PS5. You’ll still be able to play what you’ve already got — those musical delights up till now are yours to keep. Imagine playing Lady Gaga’s ‘Abracadabra’ and realizing it’s the last shiny thing you’ll get on PlayStation. Kinda bittersweet.
Now, a little suspenseful note: multiplayer’s gonna vanish for PlayStation on January 21, 2026. You might wanna mark your calendar or, you know, just mentally register a sad face. Remember how multiplayer kicked off on PCs and Quest, and everyone thought, “Hey, PlayStation’s next!”? Nope. Never happened. Shrug.
Meanwhile, the Quest and Steam communities are still rockin’ it. Seems like they’re getting all the juicy new tracks and updates. It’s like they’re at a never-ending concert, and PlayStation got kicked out for accidentally spilling soda on the mixer.
Meta’s been this odd jigsaw piece in the PlayStation puzzle since 2018. Like, they played along, but now? They’re bailing, and the air feels kinda chilly. PSVR 2 tried to make a splash in 2023, but honestly, Sony’s keeping a low profile like it’s a stealth mission. Hmm, maybe they’re thinking, “Go big or, well, don’t bother.”
Funny thing — PSVR 2 is now kinda a free agent. You can plug it into your PC like some universe-crossing contraption. Even Apple’s getting in on it. Sent my brain spiraling a bit — was it all planned, or just them winging it? Anyway, that’s the Beat Saber scoop. And yeah, maybe I’ll finish this coffee now.
