‘Beat Saber’ Ceases PSVR & PSVR 2 Updates Today; Multiplayer to End in 2026

Okay, so here’s the deal. Beat Saber—you know, that game where you slice blocks to the beat?—well, it’s not getting any more love on the PSVR and PSVR 2. Sad trombone, right? Meta’s Beat Games just announced it and folks on Twitter—or X, whatever we’re calling it now—got the scoop. Basically, if you’re rocking a PS4 or PS5, no more updates. Surprise!

Yeah, you can still jam to it; nothing’s disappearing overnight. All your favorite DLCs, those sick music packs you bought? They’re still there, chilling, ready to play. But after June 18th? Nada. Zip. New content is hitting the brakes on these platforms. Oh, and that Lady Gaga track? ‘Abracadabra’ is your last hoorah if you’re on PlayStation, since it dropped on June 5th. Quite the curtain call, huh?

And multiplayer? Well, kiss it goodbye in January 2026. Talk about delayed farewell. Fun fact: multiplayer hit the PC VR and Quest scene in 2020, and then, boom—cross-play! PlayStation, though? Nah, it didn’t get to join that party.

Meta’s being all palsy with Quest—10 million units sold, no biggie—and Steam’s still getting updates. But PlayStation? It’s sorta like that old favorite sweater that just doesn’t fit right anymore. Awkward.

Anyway, Meta used to be cool with PlayStation. Supported Beat Saber on PSVR since 2018, but now? It feels like they put a “Do Not Disturb” sign on that door. Especially after PSVR 2 launched and Sony kinda just… ghosted on making those must-have exclusives. It’s like developers saw the writing on the wall and started buddying up with the bigger crowds like Quest and SteamVR.

Oh! And get this. PSVR 2’s been morphed into this modular thing. You can play PC VR games with some wired doodad, and soon, use those PSVR 2 Sense Controllers with Apple Vision Pro. Like, that’s a total plot twist from the usual console vibe.

Crazy times.
