With the latest update, the game made a great leap forward to being a virtual gym: Besides lots of polish, some fixes, and new requested options from the community, there is now an advanced calorie tracker, player statistics, and a unique integration of heart rate monitors. So what makes PowerBeatsVR unique in the fitness game genre? The game is physically intense as no other. It will let players move, squat, sidestep and leap around obstacles in ways they haven't done before.

In short, PowerBeatsVR is meant for gamers who search for a joyful way to exercise, but also for fitness enthusiasts who like videogames or want to refresh their workout routine. Everything gets tracked and analyzed, so players can see how many calories they have burned over time and how their fitness level is progressing.
