Synth Riders is a music rhythm VR game in VRsenal’s standalone cabinet. Players hit, slide, and dodge to licensed tracks across multiple genres. No attendant required. Manufactured in Tennessee.
Synth Riders is a music rhythm game packaged in VRsenal’s standalone VR cabinet — a self-contained unit designed for arcades, family entertainment centers, and other high-throughput venues.
Players hit, slide, and dodge in time to the music. The game launched with 20 songs across multiple genres (rock, pop, country, metal) and five difficulty levels. The tracks are licensed music, not procedurally generated background loops, which matters for replayability and word-of-mouth.
The cabinet uses an HTC Vive Focus 3 headset and runs on VRsenal’s Monolith platform. VRsenal manufactures the unit in Tennessee and provides US support. The cabinet includes a 50-inch 4K LED spectator display with backlit graphics that pulse to the music — designed to attract passing traffic.
The unit requires no attendant. Players queue, pay, and play without staff intervention. Throughput is 12 plays per hour at an average 4-minute session length. Operators report pricing at $3-5 per play.
The cabinet footprint is 7.25 square feet (58 inches wide, 18 inches deep, 7 feet tall). Power requirement is 8 amps at 110-120V US or 4 amps at 220-240V international. VRsenal includes a 2-year warranty on the headset cable.
Synth Riders works for venues looking for active, family-friendly content that isn’t shooting or horror. The rhythm-game format appeals to players who want physical movement without combat. It’s a good fit for venues that already run Beat Saber or other music games and want catalog depth in that category.
