Rock Band Dev Tackling PSN, XBLA, Facebook
The next game from the creators of Rock Band appears to be a download-only title for consoles and Facebook.
First spotted by superannuation, the resume for game designer Brian Chan lists an unannounced project from Harmonix is currently in development for Xbox Live Arcade, PlayStation Network, and Facebook.
John Drake, director of communications & brand management at Harmonix, released a statement saying, “As we've stated before, our studio is growing and hard at work on a variety of titles. In a storied Harmonix tradition, our designers start working on those games before they're publicly announced. We're excited to confirm more information soon, probably via a LinkedIn update or something - we haven't decided.”
Harmonix was purchased from Viacom by investment firm Columbus Nova, LLC. in December 2010. The studio has since released Vidrhythm on the App Store and Dance Central 1 and 2 for Xbox 360 Kinect.
