The next installment in the Guitar Hero series, Warriors of Rock, will stick to the tried-and-true formula of playing along to guitar-heavy tracks, except now it will have a complete Quest mode with a full storyline narrated by Kiss bassist Gene Simmons. One other change is the look of the guitars. Redesigned and still plastic.

The images from tech site Gizmodo reveal that the buttons on the wireless controllers remain unchanged, and the touch-sensitive buttons that allow hammer-ons and slides in World Tour have been omitted. Guitar bodies can also switch out for different designs. The image above is the guitar that will come standard with the game, and below is the body design that GameStop pre-order customers will receive along with the standard guitar body. That way you can alternate between both to your heart's content.

What do you think of the new designs?
