Revealed with an initial trailer, RedOctane showed off Stage Tour for the first time. Like Guitar Hero, Stage Tour will see players playing various songs by way of a plastic guitar controller. It has the same five-button layout as the Guitar Hero and Rock Band franchises and is said to also feature “numerous new features and game modes, dozens of bandmates and instruments to fit your unique style, a deep competitive spine, and an extensive roadmap of seasonal content and live events.” While the guitar controller is front and center in this initial trailer, RedOctane has confirmed that other instruments will be playable as well.
In terms of its release, RedOctane says that Stage Tour is on track to launch this fall. It also already has a variety of new controller options lined up to release in tandem with the game. While Stage Tour will be available digitally across various storefronts, RedOctane says that it’s also planning a guitar and game bundle as well. A drum controller is in the works, too, as are new wireless microphones.
