Toot your horn in a winter wonderland in Trombone Champ: Unflattened’s first new environment, while the latest update adds new horns and custom songs

Trombone Champ: Unflattened just received a free update which added the game’s first ever new environment, a frosty outdoor Winter wonderland, along with exciting new trombones and the ability to play custom songs on the Meta Quest. In case you missed our review of Trombone Champ: Unflattened, we had a fantastic time tootin’ our horns, stating, “Trombone Champ: Unflattened is one of the funniest VR experiences I’ve ever had, and I don’t think my wife has ever enjoyed watching me play a game as much as she enjoyed me performing with a screeching cat as a trombone. This is the perfect game to hop into with a group of friends and take turns trying to earn the most toots, or just laugh at each other as you put on ridiculous performances. If you’re a fan of rhythm games, definitely do yourself a favor and pick up Unflattened.” You can learn more below:

TAMPA, FL – January 23, 2025 – Flat2VR Studios is thrilled to unveil the “New Environment, Custom Songs+” update for Trombone Champ: Unflattened, launching today across Steam, PlayStation VR2 and Meta Quest devices. This free update adds Trombone Champ: Unflattened’s first-ever alternative environment—a frosty Outdoor Winter wonderland—alongside fan-requested new trombones and, most notably, custom songs on Meta Quest devices, ensuring players have plenty of new ways to toot their own horns—and snag the game at a discount for the very first time.

The original Trombone Champ captured the hearts of gamers worldwide with its offbeat humor and free-form gameplay. Trombone Champ: Unflattened amplifies that brassy mayhem through VR, letting you slide, honk, and squeak your way through a universe that never takes itself too seriously. Now, with a festive snow-filled stage and user-generated tunes on Quest devices, there’s something new for every tromboner to explore. The Trombone Champ: Unflattened team is even answering community requests with a slew of new trombones, one of which might just bring a certain “cheeky twist” to your performance.

“New Environment, Custom Songs+” Highlights

• Outdoor Winter Environment: Immerse yourself in a snow-covered wonderland—no actual frostbite required. This first-ever alternative environment for the game feels fresh and festive, and hints at a larger framework for more open-air stages to come, giving tromboners a whole new stage to explore.
• Custom Songs on Meta Quest: Easily load personal tracks by scanning your Downloads folder, and meet George—the devilish storekeeper in Trombone Champ: Unflattened—for a quick tutorial that ensures you’re all set to jam.
• New Trombones: From the Bean Trombone’s unique yet familiar sound to the refined Koi Fish, Chinese Red Envelope, and Unicorn horns, each addition brings a fresh flair to your performance.
• Aim (Pitch) Assist: A new option that helps you stay on pitch without affecting your score.
• Unflattened Mode (formerly “Simplified”): We realized after release that some players assumed “Simplified” was an easy mode—and that’s not the case! Unflattened takes the original songs and optimizes them for VR, making them more fun (and often more challenging) to play.
• Quality-of-Life Tweaks: Store shortcuts, improved back-button flow, bug fixes, and more—fine-tuning to the overall experience.

Trombone Champ: Unflattened is available on Steam, Meta Quest, and PlayStation VR2—and for the first time ever, it’s on sale until January 27! Enjoy 10% off on Steam for a discounted price of $13.49 (down from $14.99), or pick it up on Meta Quest at an even lower $12.99.
