ABOUT SYNTH RIDERS
Synth Riders is a freestyle dancing VR rhythm game that takes place inside 13 retro-future-inspired worlds, each with its own artistic character. The game features 55 free, licensed songs and more than 20 tracks available as purchasable Music Packs, including Muse, The Offspring, Parov Stelar, and more

. Let the music move you as you catch notes, ride the rails, and dodge obstacles in a unique combination of freestyle dancing and enjoyable fitness workout that’ll allow you to burn those calories while having tons of fun at the same time.

The game will allow you to experience incredible, licensed music of various genres in a whole new, immersive way. Dancing here is not optional but crucial for those willing to climb to the top of the leaderboard. Catch the orbs with your hands, follow the rails of long notes, avoid the walls, activate your entire body, move to the beat, and break a sweat in the process!

Choose from plenty of “Stages” filled with spinning mechanisms, futuristic cities, giant synthesizers, synthwave sunsets, and many more. On top of that, enjoy “Experiences” coming with selected DLC songs – unique, artistically driven visuals created to match perfectly with songs, providing a special blend of sight, sound, and physical actions.

Test your dancing skills in one of the two game modes – “Rhythm” and “Force,” with each focusing on a completely different playstyle. And if you love to compete with friends and family, then the “Party” mode, where you’re able to pass the headset to them, should be right up your alley.

The possibilities for enjoying the game are endless, with five difficulty levels and a wide selection of additional modifiers to spice up the experience. Such as the “Spin Mode,” where notes come from different directions, requiring you to concentrate and move even more.
