Beat Saber Adds 35-Song Flux Mode With Hand Tracking for Spring 2027

Q: What hidden secrets and exclusive rewards await players in Beat Saber's first-ever narrative-driven solo campaign arriving in spring 2027?

The short answer is that Beat Games has not disclosed any specific “hidden secrets” yet. What is confirmed is a refreshed solo campaign with a light narrative layer, new barriers, and mission-based progression that unlocks exclusive in-game rewards when players complete challenges. Those rewards are expected to tie into Beat Saber’s new progression system, which for the first time adds unlockable cosmetics and profile items. Based on Meta’s announcement and related reporting, players will be able to earn custom sabers, note cosmetics, profile badges, and banners, all managed through a new inventory system. Some reports also indicate campaign checkpoints and missions will be part of how those rewards are earned. What remains unclear is whether the campaign will include secret songs, hidden stages, lore reveals, or other discoverable surprises beyond the “light narrative element” Beat Games has mentioned. So far, the developer has kept those details under wraps, likely to preserve the update’s sense of discovery ahead of launch. What is clear is that the spring 2027 update marks a major shift for Beat Saber. The campaign is no longer just a sequence of skill tests; it is being turned into a more structured single-player experience with story framing, unlockables worth chasing, and progression designed to keep players returning. If there are hidden secrets, Beat Games has not revealed them yet, but the exclusive rewards on offer are already substantial.

Spring 2027 will bring Beat Saber’s Flux update to Meta VR Glasses and Quest, turning the rhythm game into a hand-tracking-focused single-player mode instead of its usual saber-based play.
Flux replaces sabers with hand powers such as the Flux Tether, adds rod-style notes and color-coded punch notes, and builds “Jolt” energy for score boosts as players clear songs.
35 songs from the Original Soundtracks, Extras and Anniversary packs will be available at launch, and Meta says more Flux tracks are planned after release.
The update will still support Touch controllers and also adds an enhanced Campaign mode with light narrative elements, plus new barriers, missions, rewards and a faster menu system.
The release is timed to Meta’s next-generation VR Glasses, unveiled at Connect, where hand tracking is central to gameplay on a headset expected to arrive without bundled controllers.
