So, Here Are Your Top 11 Best Meta Quest Rhythm / Music Games To Right Now!
11. Paradiddle
Beat Saber may make you “feel” like a drummer, but what if you genuinely “want” to become one? Enter Paradiddle VR.
Paradiddle is a drumming simulator where you can build your drum kit and experiment with 60+ instruments—it’s like having an unlimited drumming playground.
What places this game on the list are its two distinctive modes:
- Learning Mode: The game features ten beginner-friendly lessons, perfect if you’re just starting out (like me ;)).
- Rhythm Game Mode: Become the “drummer” hero.
There’s also a multiplayer mode and an MR mode, allowing you to virtually or physically jam with your friends.
Paradiddle isn’t just about drumming; it’s about growth, creativity, and the joy of making music.
10. Audica VR
AUDICA™ is a VR Rhythm Shooter from Harmonix, the developers of Rock Band™ and Dance Central™.
Equipped with rhythm blasters, you shoot and crush targets to the beat of 33 unique soundtracks, all from the world’s most famous artists.
Score more with better planning and precision and climb up AUDICA’s Leaderboards. Just note that Audica is easy to play but hard to ace!
9. OhShape VR
If you’re tired of playing Beat Saber and are looking for an MR workout experience, then OhShape has got you covered!
It is a fantastic rhythm workout game where you gotta dodge, punch, jump or squat to avoid walls and obstacles.
The game features custom song support, cross-platform and a party mode where you can compete with your friends and family!
Just don’t forget to put our headphones on for complete immersion.
8. Samba de Amigo: Virtual Party
Samba de Amigo was an instant arcade sensation when it debuted in the ’90s. Now, the Sega classic has made a comeback, this time in VR!
In this game, you grab two maracas and shake them in sync with the rhythm of popular songs. The gameplay is incredibly simple which makes it highly accessible.
The game receives regular updates with DLCs. Currently, there are over 10 DLC packs to choose from—the more songs, the better.
Thanks to the Quest 3’s MR capability, you can transform your ‘living’ room into a ‘party’ room and personalize your character with the wildest costumes and accessories.
Here’s the twist: You can also use this game as a fitness VR experience 😉
7. Smash Drums
Next, we have Smash Drums VR! Similar to Ragnarock but what sets this game apart is the different genres of music and the spectacular environments and effects it features.
Smash drums have more of a “Streamline-music” than Ragnarock and it also features a realistic mode in which you have to hit the drums slightly or with full force.
Personally, I’m a fan of barbarian mode in which you just hit the drums and cymbals with full force.
Smash Drums can make your dream of becoming a DRUMMER come true. It’s a little difficult to play but insanely rewarding to master. And the drumstick tap is super sexy!
6. Unplugged: Air Guitar
Whenever I hear a sexy guitar riff in a song, I try to emulate the “riff” in the real world, even if I don’t know how to hold a guitar (playing Air Guitar is much simpler and a little less technical :)).
So, if you are in that club, then you’ll love Unplugged.
When I saw the trailer and this line came, “You’ve Been Preparing All Your Life,” I was like, “YES!” I was instantly hooked on the idea. What a way to use VR tech; Guitar + Hand tracking + VR = Pure Rockstar Vibe.
The game has a little learning curve, but once you get it right, it’s just another story. So, I would advise you to focus on songs at lower difficulty levels and gradually crank it up.
Want to live your Rockstar Dream without leaving your living room? Then Unplugged is the one for you.
5. Ragnarock
Ragnarok is a Viking-inspired rhythm VR game in which you play as captain and with your two hammers, you have to hit the incoming runes in sync with the epic Viking music.
You would almost forget you’re banging on drums and imagine yourself as the sweaty drummer on one of those rock bands in the Viking world!
So, if you are looking for a VR music game with a strong identity, music in perfect harmony with this Viking world and an exhilarating multiplayer mode then Buy Ragnaock now!
I’d recommend buying these grips so you don’t throw the controllers away while banging the drums.
4. Audio Trip
Another amazing VR game that I’m head over heels for is Audio Trip. In my opinion, it is one of the most underrated games that more people need to play.
The game features licensed music from popular artists such as Skrillex, Zedd, Lady Gaga, and more, ensuring an exciting and diverse soundtrack.
You can compete with players worldwide on the cross-platform global leaderboards or challenge your friends in Party mode.
The music catalogue might be a little short but it still is a fantastic and engaging fitness experience.
3. Synth Riders VR
In Synth Riders, you’ll catch notes, ride rails, and gracefully dodge obstacles, all while grooving to the rhythm. It’s like when freestyle dancing meets a heart-pumping workout, and let me tell you, it’s exhilarating.
With over 58 included tracks, Synth Riders offers an extensive selection of music to keep you grooving and it goes above and beyond with DLCs that expand the game even further.
These DLCs introduce visually stunning experiences, extra stages, and an ever-growing library of songs from popular artists like Gorillaz, Bruno Mars, Muse, and many more.
Synth Riders is a must-try for anyone seeking a thrilling and engaging VR fitness experience.
2. Pistol Whip VR
Ladies and gentlemen, get ready because it’s time for the second-best VR Rhythm game on the market: Pistol Whip!
Pistol Whip is not your ordinary VR Rhythm shooter; it’s a mind-bending, heart-pounding physical FPS game. Imagine being John Wick in VR, dodging bullets, and taking down enemies with style.
The combination of intense gunplay, an amazing song collection, and the influence of games like Super HOT and Beat Saber makes Pistol Whip a game that’s in a league of its own.
It’s the ultimate fusion of gun-fu and rhythm!

1. Beat Saber
Beat Saber is “THE RHYTHM VR GAME” because it’s Simple, Self Explanatory, Easy To Pick Up, Super Fun and Addictive to play.
You become the ultimate rhythmic warrior, armed with two light sabers. Your objective? Slash those incoming beats, represented by cubes, as they come flying towards you.
It’s like dancing with lightsabers but with an intense cardio twist!
With each swipe and slice, you’ll find yourself engaged in a full-body movement that gets your heart racing and those calories burning.
Beat Saber’s accessibility is another reason why it’s a fan favourite. And trust me, the satisfaction of nailing those harder sections is beyond amazing!
