Rocksmith 2014 tunes up for Xbox One, PlayStation 4 debut

4.5
Having already appeared on the Xbox 360, PlayStation 3 and PC, Ubisoft's virtual guitar tutor Rocksmith 2014 is now ready to jump to the next generation of gaming consoles, namely the Xbox One and PlayStation 4.

Though the ESRB already outed the new-generation version of Rocksmith 2014 last month, Ubisoft's official announcement has only just arrived. According to the publisher, the game will launch on November 4 and will feature 1080p graphics and support for both consoles' streaming and video capture capabilities. Like all PlayStation 4 games, Rocksmith 2014 will feature Remote Play on the Vita handheld, a feature which Ubisoft claims is "perfect for players looking to review a song in its entirety without feedback, study specific sections of songs or practice in another room when it's more convenient."

Those who already own Rocksmith 2014 on either the Xbox 360 or PlayStation 3 will be pleased to hear that any DLC songs they've downloaded will transfer to their console's next-generation counterpart. If you have no DLC, don't fret - that's a guitar pun - the game comes with 50 songs in tow and there are 300 additional tracks available for download.

I had RockBand on the 360 for a while, it was fun from time to time.

But with the setup that I have with my X1, I think Rocksmith is out of the question.

Boar To be honest I don't see why this is needed on next gen consoles other than ease of having it there, its not really going to make use of 'next gen graphics' is it?


I'm sure graphics will not be the only thing improved. And I'm also sure next-gen consoles weren't made soley for better graphics.

Rock band never appealed to me at all

Just an excuse for them to make more money

Idk why everyone is comparing this to guitar hero and rock band. Other than the fact it's music game, it's nothing like those games. You don't use a plastic guitar to play 5 notes. You hook up your actual guitar to learn to play actual songs with real tabs and chords. The idea behind this game is amazing

I like Guitar Hero up to GH3 then came Rock Band and DJ Hero and everything else. I still prefer GH though.
