The Party Goes Virtual as Samba de Amigo Shakes Its Way to Meta Quest 2 and Meta Quest Pro

Digital Pre-Orders Available Now


IRVINE, Calif. – June 1, 2023 – During today's Meta Quest Gaming Showcase, SEGA® announced Samba de Amigo will arrive for Meta Quest 2 and Meta Quest Pro later this fall! The announcement trailer can be found here, and pre-orders are available now via the Meta Quest Store.

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:

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.
