With the advent of VR, it is no surprise that VR rhythm games like Beat Saber have gained prominence in the gaming community. Although Beat Saber has a wide range of music packs featuring Lady Gaga, Skrillex, Billie Elish, and other artists, you can also add custom songs, and here’s how to do it.

Virtual reality games have improved significantly over the years and one game that has consistently been on the top of this genre is Beat Saber. You virtually enter a map and the beats of a song that’s playing in the background rush toward you. With the virtual lightsabers in your hands, you have to slash the beats and make a high score. 

From BTS and Linkin Park to Green Day and Rocket League x Monstercat, Beat Saber already has a decent music collection for its players. However, the more the merrier right?
