Irish rock band U2 is finally getting its songs in the Rockband franchise. “I Will Follow” comes from the band’s 1980 debut album Boy, while “Cedarwood Road” hails from the Songs of Innocence album, released for free to 500 million iTunes users last year. Early next month, development studio Harmonix will roll out Rock Band 4. The game will feature accessories created by Mad Catz, including a guitar, microphone and drum set. The keyboard, previously introduced in Rock Band 3 as a playable instrument, will no longer be available for play. The music game genre reached its peak in 2008, spurred by titles such as Guitar Hero and Rocksmith, but developers at Harmonix are ready to give the genre a comeback. "We just had to wait until the time was right," explained Lead Designer Matthew Nordhaus. Nordhaus also says that the game will offer a variety of new twists, such as freestyle guitar solos and a wide-branching narrative in campaign mode. Nick Chester, public relations lead for Harmonix, said, "You can play the...campaign three or four times and see different things." While Rock Band 4 will offer new gameplay, character customization and objectives, that doesn’t mean it’s without competition. Guitar Hero Live goes on sale October 20 for Xbox One, Xbox 360, PlayStation 4, PlayStation 3 and Wii U, as well as mobile devices. Players can also download previously-purchased tracks to use in the game. Rock Band 4 comes with 60 songs to start with, but players can purchase more than 1,500 additional tracks from the music library. Rock Band 4 goes on sale October 6. The game alone costs $59, but the complete Band-in-a-Box kit (which includes one of each instrument, plus the game) will sell for just under $250. ----- Source: USA Today Image: GameSpot
