Hatsune Miku VR is a state-of-the-art music rhythm VR game. Developed by Crypton Future Media in 2018, this video game is available to play on Steam and stars the iconic fictional singer, Hatsune Miku.

The melody symbols flying off from the speakers behind the singer and towards the player need to be interacted with in time to keep a perfect score streak. As the music and dance carry on, the velocity of the melody symbols increases drastically, making the dance moves made by the player become faster and converting the whole scenario into an intense action!

Now on the list, we have one of if not the oldest games on the list and the genre itself. It is none other than the VR gaming legend Holodance. A game that was released in early access in 2015 and since then, due to the massive effort of the developers and the dedication of the fans has seen multiple iterations with whole new mechanics and levels. All of these have combined into the 2020 official launch title. Featuring whole new mechanics and art styles, it was also co-developed for Windows and PlayStation, with an HTC Vive port coming later on.

As for its gameplay, the game is fully VR meaning that the only way to play it is to own a dedicated VR headset. With that said the game is probably one of the very few games to fully utilize all the aspects of the VR headset because the core gameplay loop of the game is a rhythm game meaning you will have to utilize all of your senses bar one to be good at the game. While it might seem like a novel idea at first glance, after a few levels you will start to feel the rhythm of the beat and learn to move on instinct alone. And with high mod and community content support rest assured you will not be wanting more content anytime soon.

It also is a great method for those who want to exercise and move their body but can't due to a physical hindrance or anxiety. The game can easily be played from the comfort of one's home and it also has multiple modes that help adapt to the challenge based on your needs. But the best method to enjoy the game is at a party or get-together as players can join in with friends and take on duo challenges. So if you wish to experience a game that represents the original concept, look no further than Holodance.



Beat Arena

Lastly on the list, we have a game that has one and only one goal in mind endless music and action, Beat Arena. It is developed by none other than the old legend Konami for Windows-based headsets and the original Meta Quest. It is an homage to the rhythm games of old and the sheer insanity they brought upon the player not only testing his gaming skills but also his mental fortitude. Beat Arena is also doing a similar job when it comes to testing its players as it features multiple maps each of which is focused around a specific theme or game from the company's catalogue. 

The gameplay is the perfection of the rhythm games of old and it features many if not all of the most iconic features from Konami’s rhythm game catalog. And while due to this it might feel a bit repetitive at first, rest assured as you advance in the levels the mediocrity of the levels is slowly replaced by the insane thrill of the challenge and the sheer spectacle of the stages. You will be reacting to retro songs of old one moment and the next you will be locked in a fierce battle against the rhythm gods themselves.

So if you wish to witness an actual great game by Konami after all these years then Beat Arena is the game for you.
