Synth Riders is a dance and rhythm-based VR video game where you have to catch notes following the music. With a mechanic very similar to Beat Saber, you need to intercept the flashing notes that come at you from the front in the form of colored light globes and rails. Anticipate their trajectories and interact with them while following the beat of 58 different songs across several difficulties. You can unlock more than 40 additional songs via DLC if you like Synth Riders, including themes from Lindsey Stirling, Muse, Caravan Palace and more.

Synth Riders allows you to burn calories while having fun, and features plenty of modifiers to spice-up your gameplay. You can even share the fun with up to 10 friends in multiplayer.
