Rock Band Blitz Gets Release Date
Harmonix is going back to its Amplitude roots in a way with Rock Band Blitz, a downloadable music game that uses a regular controller.
The game comes out first for PSN on August 27 ($14.99) and a day later on XBLA for 1,200 Microsoft Points.
Rock Band Blitz's song library is augmented by the Rock Band store and you can export your music from other Rock Band games. Blitz also comes with 20 songs. Finally, the game's songs are compatible with Rock Band 3, so you can play as a full band if you want.
A few new tunes have also just been announced for Blitz:
- Avenged Sevenfold – "So Far Away"
- Fun. ft. Janelle Monáe – "We Are Young"
- Kool & The Gang – "Jungle Boogie"
- My Chemical Romance – "Sing"
For more songs in the game, check out Blitz's official website.
I’d like to ask you to support Game Informer’s continued coverage of games with a subscription. For less than two dollars per issue, we mail you a full year of 10 print magazines, each with cover stories and preview features filled with exclusive details about the most exciting upcoming games. We profile and interview game creators. We look back on the rich history of gaming, and we celebrate what’s next.
Here on the website, we offer much of our content for free, including game reviews, daily news, videos, event coverage, and more – all with minimal ads.
We do so with a small editorial team, alongside contributing paid writers from around the world – over 65 individuals from 9 countries around the world, just in the last couple of years.
It’s not possible without support.
In a time when game makers and games coverage have faced hard struggles and layoffs, the future of this 30+ year magazine and community is at risk. Our new standalone magazine subscription is the number one way you can keep us alive – and we believe you’ll get a pretty fantastic gaming magazine in your mailbox every few weeks for your trouble.
Thank you.
