Just when you thought you’d mastered every stage in Beat Saber, the devious minds at developer Beat Games unleash a brutal new difficulty tier. Fire up the PlayStation VR version of this popular virtual reality rhythm game and you’ll get instant access to “Expert+” across its current catalogue of toe-tapping tracks. It comes as part of software update 1.06.

We’ve spent an hour or so hacking away at Beat Saber’s new difficulty level and it sure doesn’t mess around. Each track generates substantially more blocks for you to dissect with a greater use of diagonal and double slashes, all at a much higher tempo. Even if you’ve managed to breeze through stages on Expert in the past, Expert+ will humble you in a matter of seconds, reducing your arms to jelly as you sweat one out.
For some, Expert+ will prove a bit too much – a mode strictly for Beat Saber’s elite masterclass – though it marks another great free update from the team at Beat Games.
