The virtual reality rhythm game Maestro, where players conduct a virtual orchestra, has expanded its content and platform availability. The game has introduced a new downloadable content (DLC) pack featuring music from Star Wars and has also been released on the PlayStation VR2 platform.
The new Star Wars content pack includes the track “Duel of the Fates” by John Williams, from Star Wars: Episode I – The Phantom Menace. Accompanying the music is a new in-game cosmetic item: a miniature lightsaber that players can use as a conducting baton. This DLC is available for the Quest, SteamVR, PICO, and the new PSVR2 versions of the game.
Coinciding with the DLC, Maestro has launched on the PlayStation VR2. A “Complete Collection Bundle,” which includes all available content packs, has been released for the PSVR2. This bundle is also being made available on all other platforms where the game is sold.
Developed by the French team Double Jack, Maestro is a VR rhythm game that places the player in the role of an orchestra conductor. The game is an expansion of a free demo titled Maestro: The Masterclass. While centered on classical music, the game incorporates a variety of genres and has previously released other themed content packs.
Prior DLCs include the “Secrets of Sorcery” pack, with music from Harry Potter and Fantasia, and the “Doom Bound” pack, which featured themes from Game of Thrones and The Lord of the Rings.
The game’s publisher, Creature, is a VR-focused label that supports independent developers. Maestro was the first project to receive funding from a $1 million fund established by SideQuest and Creature in August 2023 to support independent VR development. The game was initially released for Quest and Steam VR in October 2024.
