Beat Saber became a separate phenomenon of virtual reality, mixing infectious melodies with addictive gameplay. But that can make this whole experience even better? More bass, tactile feedback? The joint work of Beat Games and SUBPAC tactile backpack with feeling each blow, released in limited edition.

The main idea of a wearable haptic devices such as the SUBPAC is to make games like Beat Saber, even more exciting, allowing players to feel the music effect in the game. For such a rhythm-action games for more immersion can also lead to an improvement in reaction time and higher performance.
“Our mission with Beat Saber is that people of all ages and abilities physically felt the music is the coolest way,” said Jaroslav Beck, head of the music group Beat Games. “I use the SUBPAC in the Studio and I know it’s the right technology in order to handle this mission.”
“Our goal is to create a new immersive standard physical deep dive,” said John Alexiou, co-founder SUBPAC. “Yaroslav and the team Beat Saber has created an incredible musical virtual experience that we are proud to work. Now we will raise it to the next level”.
Although this may sound somewhat rashly, to spend 299 £ vibrating backpack. Therefore, Beat Games will also hold a contest through our social media channels for fans.
Apparently, this will not be the last collaboration between the two companies, as there are hints of future projects.
Last month, the Studio has released an update OST Vol.3, adding more songs and features to the game.
