Rock Band® 3 is the next generation of the ultimate social and interactive music gaming platform developed by the category’s leading pioneers, Harmonix Music Systems.  Featuring innovative game modes and instruments, Rock Band 3 will change the way fans think about and play music games.

FEATURES:

The Most Music.  Period.  The RB3 disc soundtrack contains 83 of the best bands from around the world, including bands that have never appeared in a music game, and support for existing Rock Band tracks (previous Rock Band discs, downloaded songs and track/artist packs).  Plus, RB3 will give you immediate access to a library of over 2000 songs by launch, with new content added weekly.  Rock Band’s gigantic music library dwarfs that of Guitar Hero® or any other music game.

Redesigned Music Library.  Create and save set lists, and share them with your friends online.  Improved song sorting makes it easier to find the songs you like–and hide the songs you don’t.  Song recommendation system will recommend new songs for you based upon those you already like to play.

Expand the Band: Keyboard and Vocal Harmony.  In addition to guitar, bass, drums, and solo voice, RB3 introduces 3-part vocal harmonies, and—for the first time ever—keyboard!  Up to 7 players can play together for the ultimate social gaming experience.
 
Go Pro.  Take your passion for music to the next level:  “Rock Band Pro” lets you develop real musical instrument skills through gameplay!
Pro Drums supports three expansion cymbals for more accurate drum set simulation.
Pro Keys features pitch-accurate keyboard performance.
Pro Guitar—the flagship of the RB Pro initiative—features realistic guitar and bass performance, utilizing the new “Mustang Pro” simulated guitar controller.  Additionally, Harmonix is working with professionals in the music industry to deliver to players a real electric guitar controller.
