Beat Saber help is ending on PS VR and PS VR2

It is the top of the road for Beat Saber on PS VR and PS VR2. Whilst you’ll nonetheless be capable to purchase and play the bottom recreation on each platforms, in addition to any songs and music packs that have been launched earlier than in the present day (June 18), Beat Video games is winding down help for these variations. They will not get any new songs or music packs. As such, the ultimate tune that turned out there for Beat Saber on PS VR and PS VR2 was “Abracadabra.”
