Since Beat Saber uses motion tracking, you can’t play the game on the PlayStation VR unless you have the PlayStation Move controller. It’s sold separately for $60. Normally, you’d use two controllers to play Beat Saber, but is it possible with just one?
You can play Beat Saber on the PSVR with one Move controller. The game has a One-Handed mode, which you can select on the menu screen. Its tracks are a lot different but it is still challenging. You can even play the beat maps mirrored if you’re left-handed.

However, to fully enjoy the Beat Saber experience, it’s recommended to play with two Move controllers. Multiplayer mode can’t be accessed with a single saber as well. If you don’t own one at the moment, you can buy Sony’s PlayStation Move Two Pack. It’s cheaper than purchasing two $60 controllers separately.
Besides, Beat Saber isn’t the only game that uses Move controllers. Other PSVR games, such as Superhot, Job Simulator, and The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim VR, have the option to be played with Move controllers for the added immersion. Non-VR PS4 games that require motion tracking, such as Just Dance, also need at least one Move controller to be playable.
