(RUMOR) - Rock Band is reportedly ready for a current-gen comeback!
Call up your plastic band mates as a report from Bloomberg Business is claiming a PlayStation 4 and Xbox One version of Rock Band is currently in development.
The report cites a source familiar with plans for the game, who says series creator Harmonix Music Systems will be developing the next Rock Band for a new generation of consoles.
Earlier this year, Harmonix released some new Rock Band DLC, which didn’t receive any additions since 2013. In fact, just this week the developer released new Tenacious D and Weezer tracks.
The last time we received any kind of Rock Band game was when Rock Band Blitz was released back in 2012, which focused more on using standard game console controllers to play music tracks rather than having to dig up your plastic instruments from their plastic graves in an attic, basement, or across various closets.
This news comes just a few months after rumors circulated Activision was working on a new Guitar Hero game for current-gen consoles. If that turns out to be true, then we could already be seeing an oversaturation of music games before it even makes a proper comeback.
