Hoo boy, PAX is pretty much drawing to a close. Harmonix, who I believe attend yearly, had a ton of announcements. That includes Tuesday's DLC! So for Tuesday, it's 3 singles!
-What I Like About You by The Romantics
-Redneck by Lamb of God
-Dope Nose by Weezer
I may get all of these. Redneck sounds pretty fun, What I Like About You is a big classic, and Dope Nose was in Amplitude! Good stuff.
Here's everything else they announced at PAX;
-Two characters from Battleborn will be playable in RB4. They will be part of the May update. Not really interested in Battleborn, but they look cool. I'm definitely down for more otherworldly characters for RB in the future.
-PDP already proving their worth, for they are releasing a new Adapter for Xbone in which Ion drums (the most well-designed custom drum kit for RB. Period.) will finally be compatible with RB4! That's pretty awesome.
-Double Bass pedal support also coming as part of the May update!
-Practice mode finally coming as part of the June update!
-No news on July update, except that HMX said it'll be the last update before a break they're taking from monthly updates. Perhaps to focus more on export issues, DLC flub-ups, and the like.
-Monthly updates will resume in Fall, and in a big way. HMX says there's going to be a big-ol' expansion in order to "kick off Chapter 2 of Rock Band 4." Possibly a new band-centric game? Or maybe just a shitload of new songs for us that we can add to our library as well as new features? Blitz 2? Who knows, no doubt they want to re-establish RB4 as a Holiday shopper's choice this year again. A "Super Rock Band 4" if you will.
-Online Multiplayer officially confirmed, not just a "maybe" anymore, but confirmed! It is coming out at the end of the year. Can't wait to lay waste on the leaderboards with you guys!
Pretty much all of this news has got me excited. Really wondering what this big expansion they've been teasing is going to be.
