SEGA reveals Samba de Amigo is heading to Meta Quest 2 and Meta Quest Pro

The Meta Quest Showcase delivered some surprising announcements. One of which is the party hit, Samba de Amigo, which is going virtual. Over 40 songs will be available as well as the ability to join up with up to seven players online via World Party Mode. Samba de Amigo is up for digital pre-order now and is scheduled to launch later this year. More information is below:

As a special bonus, those who preorder the game ($29.99 MSRP) ahead of launch will also receive the following unique in-game accessories they can use to dress up their Amigo:

–A virtual replica Meta Quest 2 VR headset

–A pair of virtual replica Meta Quest controllers that replace the player’s maracas

Let’s Get the Virtual Party Started

Get ready to shake your maracas when Samba de Amigo comes to VR this fall. Colorful and cute, SEGA’s original Samba de Amigo music rhythm game became a phenomenon when it hit arcades in 1999—and became one of the best reasons to own a Sega Dreamcast a year later. Now, more than two decades later, an all-new entry in the Samba de Amigo series feels like a natural fit for VR. Dance along to hit songs from the world’s top genres with your monkey-friend Amigo, strike a pose or two, and make your day a little brighter.
