Highly anticipated new material from Guns N’ Roses‘s long long awaited Chinese Democracy album is also to appear on the game. The track “Shackler’s Revenge” will be the first track to be officially released from the album.

AC/DC have also signed up for an exclusive deal licensing their material to the game, where players form a virtual band and play along to famous songs on ‘console’ instruments.

Since it launched last year, Rock Band is reported to have generated over $200 million for its developers, Harmonix Music Systems.
