rhythm game Logos and Brands

Guitar Hero, Rock Band, Dance Dance Revolution, Beat Saber, and osu! created the rhythm game genre, in which players hit notes by pressing buttons or performing physical actions in time with the music, and the Rhythm Game section collects logos from such projects. Rhythm game emblems feature musical staves, sound waves, dancing figures, and musical instruments, conveying a sense of rhythm even before the game starts. The genre peaked in popularity in the late 2000s with plastic guitars and drum kits in living rooms, and then found a second wind in virtual reality with the release of Beat Saber in 2018. The brands in this section represent a gaming niche where music and gameplay merge into a single interactive experience.
