The Guitar Hero series made be dead and gone, but in its place comes a new game called Stage Tour, and it’s made by the latest evolution of the same studio that created Guitar Hero.
A critical component of any good music games is its tracklist, and the Embracer-owned RedOctane Games has announced the first seven tunes for Stage Tour. The officially licensed setlist includes songs from a range of genres, and features big-name bands like Red Hot Chili Peppers, Weezer, and Ghost.
Stage Tour songs, so far
- “RATATATA” by Babymetal & Electric Callboy
- “Get the Funk Out” by Extreme
- “Square Hammer” by Ghost
- “Mimi’s Delivery Service” by Good Kid
- “Dani California” by Red Hot Chili Peppers
- “Terminator Oscillator” by Static-X
- “Island in the Sun” by Weezer
RedOctane will announce more artists and tracks later this summer ahead of launch later this year on console and PC.
Just like Guitar Hero and Rock Band before it, Stage Tour allows players to group up or play music solo on guitar, drums, keyboard, and vocals.
In terms of peripherals, players can buy a specially designed guitar controller made in partnership with Gibson’s Kramer, along with a modulator guitar kit. Additionally, Stage Tour features in-game guitars from Gibson, Epiphone, and Kramer, including the iconic Gibson SG.
