Beat Saber has just launched its most thrilling DLC yet—a METALLICA music pack with 17 of the band’s biggest hits. This is not a plug, but I’m just saying, if you’re a fan of rhythm games and/or metal, this is truly a must-have.
The track list includes anthems like Enter Sandman, Master of Puppets, Nothing Else Matters, and Seek & Destroy. Whether you’re into the hard-hitting Battery or the haunting vibe of Fade to Black, the music on offer has something for everyone. Beat Saber has also really pushed the difficulty level here, offering some of the most challenging songs in the game’s history. You’ll need sharp reflexes to keep up with the intensity.
The visual experience is equally as intense. Beat Saber has created a new, fully immersive environment in the game, completely inspired by METALLICA. The setting features towering metal scaffolding, lasers, and fire that move with the music. The visuals aren’t just there for show—they’re designed to elevate the experience, syncing perfectly with the fast-paced rhythm of the tracks. Every note feels like part of a high-energy light show, making you feel like you’re at a METALLICA concert in VR.
Gameplay also has some exciting upgrades too. The new Variable Note Jump Speed feature means the speed of the blocks changes based on the song’s intensity. This means you can expect faster, more chaotic sequences during the heavy moments. Additionally, a new colour override lets you adjust the cube colours to your liking.
The METALLICA music pack isn’t just for solo play—multiplayer modes are included too. Compete with friends or random players and see who can handle the intensity of these songs.
You can grab the METALLICA pack now for $39.99, either on its own or bundled with the base game. The bundle is available at a discount until January 31, 2025. If you love Beat Saber and METALLICA, this DLC is an absolute game-changer. Check out the trailer below.
