The music aspect of the game is highly praised for its extensive library, allowing players to download custom tracks from BeatSaver, enhancing the overall experience. While the in-game songs are enjoyable, some users feel that improved tracking technology could further elevate gameplay. Overall, the game is considered a fun and free VR music rhythm experience with a solid selection of tracks.
- “This is a tai chi inspired VR music rhythm game.”
- “It's free, it's fun, and you can download almost any song from BeatSaver in-game.”
- “That means you have almost any song you'd want in this game to dance to for completely free.”
- “In my opinion, the music aspect is super right now, but I need something like Kinect 360/One or Joy-Con hand tracking. I've bought DLC, and sometimes the 30 FPS camera is worse than Kinect 360's 30 FPS. With Kinect, I was able to finish expert songs in Beat Saber, but here with a webcam at 30 FPS, I could only finish hard and barely 'try' expert. So, it's really good right now, but it still needs something.”
- “This is a Tai Chi inspired VR music rhythm game.”
- “Come with 10 music tracks; you can download more tracks from BeatSaver.”

- “Rhythm Taichi XR is a weird, junky, failed attempt to make some kind of paygated 'rhythm' game where you wave your arms around in front of your webcam, because that's apparently 'gameplay'.”
