Beat Saber is a virtual reality rhythm game that puts you in a virtual world, inside an immersive platform and requires players to slash blocks with virtual lightsabers in time with the beat of the music. It is a game that is easy to pick up but difficult to master.

If you want to get good at Beat Saber, there are a few tips and tricks you can use to improve your skills. Here are some of the best ways to become a Beat Saber master.

Turn on No Fail modifier:

If you are just starting out with your first few songs, you would want to turn on the No Fail modifier as it will help you finish the song without having to keep on repeating it over and over again each time you fail.

Practice, Practice, Practice:

The most important thing you can do to get good at Beat Saber is to practice. The more you play the game, the better you will become. You can start with easier difficulty levels and work your way up as you improve.

Set aside some time each day to play the game, and you will see your skills improve over time. Better yet, play your favorite tune while you hone your form.

After all, the game offers tons and tons of bopping tracks from some of the most famous artists today. Fancy playing Lady Gaga’s songs? Beat Saber got you covered!

Your Form Matters:

Another important factor in getting good at Beat Saber is playing with good form. This means holding your controllers correctly and using the proper slashing motion when hitting the blocks. Make sure you are standing in the correct position and using your whole body to make the slashes. Good form will help you hit the blocks more accurately and with more power.

Focus on Accuracy, Not Speed

When you first start playing Beat Saber, it can be tempting to try to hit the blocks as quickly as possible. However, focusing on speed can lead to sloppy technique and missed blocks.

Instead, focus on accuracy. Make sure you are hitting every block correctly and with the right amount of power. As you improve your accuracy, your speed will naturally increase.

Use Custom Songs and Mods:

One of the great things about Beat Saber is that it has a thriving modding community. You can download custom songs and mods that can help you improve your skills. Some mods add new gameplay mechanics, and playing with songs you love definitely helps (which the base game offers as well). 

Take Breaks:

While it is important to practice regularly, it is also essential to take breaks. Playing Beat Saber for extended periods can lead to fatigue and burnout (and the sweat is immense).

Make sure you take breaks every hour or so to rest your eyes and stretch your muscles. This will help you stay focused and energized when you return to the game. Have a sip or two of your nearby bottled water every round.

Getting good at Beat Saber takes time and practice, but it is worth the effort. Hopefully, these tips and tricks can help you improve your skills and become a Beat Saber master. Remember to practice regularly, play with good form, focus on accuracy, use custom songs and mods, and take breaks when needed. With these strategies, you will be slashing blocks like a pro in no time.
