New Guitar Hero game to be announced at E3

New Guitar Hero game to be announced at E3 – report

4.7

There is a new Guitar Hero game in development at Activision, and it’s set to be revealed at this year’s E3.

According to sources close to Kotaku, Activision is currently working on a new Guitar Hero game for PlayStation 4 and Xbox One.

The upcoming game’s visual style will be different from older releases in the franchise in that it will adopt a “more realistic” approach. An E3 reveal is said to be planned, according to one source.

New guitar peripherals will also be introduced. The game is due before the end of the year.

“We don’t comment on rumour or speculation, but have previously said, that as one of the most beloved entertainment franchises, we would only bring Guitar Hero back if we developed the right innovations to usher the franchise into the new generation of gaming,” an Activision spokesperson said when contacted by Kotaku.

Talk of an upcoming Rock Band game being developed for new-gen consoles has also been doing the rounds recently. It’s important not to mix up both franchises, though it would certainly not be surprising if both games were revealed and released in 2015.

Meh. Guitar Hero is fun for like 10 min every couple of days, so not spending money on it.

They should put this for 360 also because I'm not getting a ps4 or xbone and I want to play a new guitar hero so bad

Hopefully they do release a new Rock Band, been waiting on one for a while now. Much more fun than Guitar Hero and can't wait to see how much it's improved from the previous generation consoles.

Well all I can say is I hope there is a new one as that would bring so much hype and its one of the best games I have played and really fun so I do hope this is true.
