Next week, on April 10th at 6pm UK / 10am PST, BEATABLE launches on the Meta Horizon Store—and I couldn’t be prouder of our team at XR Games.
Addictive, Intuitive, Genius (not our words!) — BEATABLE Launches Next Week!
By Bobby ThandiThu Apr 03 2025
We set out to create a rhythm game that feels different. A game that’s not just played but felt—where your hands, your space, your desk even, become part of the instrument. And seeing how players, musicians, critics, and early testers have responded... it’s been electric.
From Money Mark of the Beastie Boys calling it “that ‘aha!’ moment when creativity gifts you something special”, to RoadToVR calling it “a Hand-tracking Rhythm Game for Quest with a Genius Premise”, to VR YouTuber Naysy crowning it “the next era of rhythm gaming”—the love has been real.
We’ve heard it described as “simple to learn, hard to master and addictive fun!” (Gamertag VR), “fun, unique, and intuitive!” (The Elite Institute), and even “a rhythm revolution” (MissChiefVR). And one of our favourites—Antony “Skarredghost” Vitillo from The Ghost Howls—nailed it when he said:
“Once you see it, you wonder why no one had this genius idea before.”
We’re so grateful to everyone who’s played early, given feedback, shared videos, or just vibed with the music. You helped shape this.
And to give you a taste of what’s possible—here’s a jaw-dropping clip of our Creative Director Chuan Liu hitting a score so high, we’re pretty sure he’s part machine. Matrix-level stuff.
Roll on launch day. We can’t wait for you to play.
Bobby
