Rock Band World Facebook App Announced
In conjunction with the release of Rock Band Blitz next week, Harmonix is making available a new Facebook app that allows players to collaborate and compete with other Rock Band players.
Players can work alone or team up with friends in the Rock Band community, Harmonix says. You can also challenge players to "Score Wars."
“When designing Rock Band World we wanted to extend the player experience beyond the console in exciting new and social ways,” says project director Matthew Nordhaus. “By letting Xbox 360 and PlayStation 3 players link both Rock Band Blitz and Rock Band 3 to their large, already established social network, we’re opening up some great opportunities for competitive and collaborative gameplay."
Rock Band World is also compatible with Rock Band 3. You can browse 3800+ song Rock Band catalog, get detailed statistics on their own in-game performance, and more. Check out the debut trailer below.
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.
