Imagine Dragons have joined forces with Beat Games to share a 10-track music pack for Beat Saber. The pack will be available on all major VR platforms, including Oculus Quest and the Rift Platform.
At $1.99 per song or $12.99 for all 10 tracks, the pack includes music from Imagine Dragons’ four studio albums: Night Visions, Smoke + Mirrors, Evolve and Origins.
The songs include “Bad Liar,” “Believer,” “Digital, “It’s Time,” “Machine,” “Natural,” “Radioactive,” “Thunder,” “Warriors” and “Whatever It Takes.”
The Beat Saber Twitter teased the collaboration and new music pack back in May, promising followers, “It’s gonna be huge!”

They also challenged followers to guess the name of the artist or band for a chance to win a free key to the music pack. By looking more deeply into the teaser image, some users were able to figure it out.
So I thought it looked like the natural single artwork, and so I resized the natural artwork to 8×8 and it’s VERY similar (1/2) https://t.co/BW8UWDQjy3

Oculus has also served up exclusive demos of a brand-new 360° level featuring the Imagine Dragons single “Believer.” Unveiled at E3, the level will be released sometime this summer. Check out the full, mind-bending VR trailer for the level down below.
Imagine Dragons’ Interscope Records is the first label to partner on a music pack with Beat Saber.
A VR music rhythm game, Beat Saber allows players to use a saber to slash the beats of pumped-up music as blocks representing beats fly toward you while you explore a futuristic world. Fully released May 2019, the game has garnered praise from critics and players alike, and won a 2018 Gamers’ Choice Award and a 2019 D.I.C.E. Award for Immersive Reality Game of the Year, among other VR and general gaming awards.
