According to an announcement from developer Smartmelon Games and publisher Fast Travel Games, Band Space will be released on October 24 for $19.99 on Meta Quest 3, Quest 3S and other Quest headsets, as well as on Steam for PC VR. The VR game allows up to four players to make music together in VR or mixed reality.

At launch, Band Space offers 30 tracks from various artists, including Jason Bowld from Bullet For My Valentine and Johnny Lloyd from Tribes. The official soundtrack is already available on Spotify and YouTube. You can find a link in the source below the article. The developers are planning to possibly add more songs as DLC in the future.

    It just looks like a VR version of Guitar Hero… A beginners guitar amp combo costs about the same as the cheapest version of one of those headsets and you can play any song you want on it or just make up your own songs lol

      It’s so funny to compare a VR headset with a guitar XD yes the guitar will guitar better and cheaper then the VR headset. But it’ll do only that.

        It just seems silly to me to use cutting edge virtual reality technology to pretend to do something most people could easily do in real life lol

      do we have any games that can accurately tell what you are doing on a real guitar by the sound and score your performance of a song and put it on a leaderboard? market it unofficially as guitar hero for adults
