Get the tour bus fired up and check the oil Rock Band 2 is now official and it's heading to an Xbox 360 near you this September, other platforms will be releasing later on so hang in there.
One real nice feature is that all your down loadable content RB1 will work just fine in RB2, no you are reading it right there is no DRM and no fee to transfer the music tracks. Think about this, with all your old tracks and the new tracks for RB2 IGN is saying: "the set list at launch may top 300 songs."
All RB1 instruments will work with the sequel but upgraded versions will be available in a bundle pack, Harmonix isn't revealing what these upgrades are just yet.
Rock Band downloads will continue to arrive weekly for both Xbox 360 and PS3. Each track you purchase is essentially extending your library of Rock Band 2 tracks. And even though PS3 owners will have to wait longer to get Rock Band 2 on disc, they will still have access to new down loadable content with RB1. With Rock Band DLC having now surpassed 15 million paid downloads, there appears no end in sight for the most successful digitally distributed product on 360 and PS3.
Perhaps the biggest news so far europ will be getting RB2 at the same time as the US and im sure that makes the entire europion area happy since it took so long for RB1 to releas over there.
