Beat Saber aficionado and developer Kaitlyn gives fans of the game great joy. Her latest Beat Saber mod allows her to play the game in a menu environment, with the original Early Access version of her user her interface from early 2018. Beat Saber finished that phase and was officially released in May 2019.
