The last major update for Beat Saber was released today on all supported platforms, adding five new mods, as well as icons for multiplayer and a lot of settings in the user interface.
Beat Saber v1.13.4 is out today on all platforms, and it contains some interesting changes that can spice up your gameplay.
Players will see five new modifiers, most of which will increase the difficulty of the song:
- Super fast song — speed 150%
- Pro (beta) — hitboxes are the same size as Cuba.
- Strict angles (beta) — you need to more accurately align your swing with the direction of the arrow
- Little notes (beta) — the size of the notes up to 50% less (but hitboxes not so much reduced)
- Zen mode — no notes or a user interface, just enjoy the music and light!
While most of the mods game will affect your score positively or negatively, those listed above as “beta”, will not be affected, at least at the moment.
In addition to the new modifier, multiplayer Beat Saber has also received an upgrade in the form of 11 new icons that can be obtained to demonstrate the performance of the player against other players after each song. Here is the complete list:
- Perfectionist — full combo
- Longest Journey — best max combo
- Casual Cutter — worst max combo
- Saber Surgeon — best accuracy
- Lumberjack — worst accuracy
- Jazz Hands — the greatest movement of hands
- Fencer is the smallest movement of the hands
- Restless Slicer — most movements swords
- Nihilist — minority movements swords
- No Mercy — the most beautiful cuts
- Air slicer — good breakdown
New multiplayer icon for Beat Saber is accompanied by a new score screen multiplayer to show the new badges. Other players are now presented with custom colors in multiplayer.
Despite the fact that it was updated not so long ago, this new update is said to also contain the main menus updates with new music.
In addition, Beat Saber v1.13.4 also includes “an updated lighting system” and “different settings and correct”, although the developer didn’t go into details.
Unfortunately, this update still does not include a multiplayer mode for PSVR version of the game, but at least other improvements in this update are now embedded in the headset.
Before this update, Beat Sabук v1.13.2 suggested a number of improvements:
- Modified modifier No Fail: 0.5 x multiplier applies only after you will run out of energy.
- Obstacles are now visible to other players in multiplayer.
- Back player stats (including online statistics) on the screen “Help / How to play”.
- Fixed a fireworks display on the results screen.
- Fixed detector growth of the player to calculate the correct growth of the player in the game.
- Visual improvements and other minor fixes.
