Beat Saber is a virtual reality rhythm game developed by Ján Ilavský, Vladimír Hrinčár, and Peter Hrinčár. The game was published by Czech game developer Beat Games and was later obtained by Oculus Studios. It takes place in many different surrealistic neon environments and features the player slicing blocks representing musical beats with a pair of brightly colored sabers. Following an early access release on May 1, 2018, the game was officially released for PlayStation 4 and Windows on May 21, 2019, and for the Meta Quest in standalone mode.

Runs well on modern hardware.

Works fine on Linux, probably one of the best VR games ever made. I don't recommend buying songs, use custom songs and you'll be fine. Also, have a backup of your modded game in case of useless updates devs ship every now and then
It was better before Meta bought it, but still not bad if you mostly play modded.
While i love beat saber, i have my issues with it that ultimately lead to a negative review. first: it's a game you pay for. The "free" songs are not that many tbh. the sheer amount of DLC and the prices are reason for a thumbs down alone. idk. they could for any artist pack do a bunch of songs and a few are free. that'd be more fair, i guess. The biggest problem for me however, is the updates. they break the mods. so unless you use BS manager and use an older version, most mods won't work. and since mappers release songs on different versions, you always have to figure out which version supports which mod, so you can play a specific custom song. this game should be accesible, but it's a mess. with a modding community as huge as this, devs should work with and for modders. but it's meta, i guess. meta fked up the vr landscape anyways.
