One hit. One life. Don't miss.

BiteSaber is a lightning-fast duel where your saber is strapped to your hips. No hands. Move, attack, parry: that's the whole game. Whiff and your blade sticks in the ground. Parry and theirs bounces off. Rounds last seconds, and you'll want the rematch.

Three buttons. A thousand feints.

No combos to learn. You win by reading your opponent a split second before they move.

Inspired by a little-known game from western Sweden: tie a stick around your waist and try to hit each other. No hands allowed.

Close the distance…
  • A

    Move

    Own the distance. Step in to threaten, step out to make them swing at air.

  • S

    Attack

    One clean hit takes a life. Miss, and your blade is stuck in the ground. You're wide open.

  • W

    Parry

    Time it right and their blade bounces off, leaving them open for yours.

Straight from the arena

Four ways to settle it

  • Solo

    Train against a bot with three difficulty levels. Easy lets you learn the parry timing. Hard reads you before you've decided.

    1 player
  • Local

    Two players, one screen. Split the keyboard, plug in two gamepads, or share a phone with a touch pad each. The fastest way to end an argument.
