Game Development
It was announced on October 30, 2008 that Harmonix Music Systems is developing a thew firstmusic video game using The Beatles song catalog.[1]
The game will be released in Q4 2009, and will work with all Rock Band accessories, and incorporate many of the gameplay features of the Rock Band Series. [2][3] This game will not be an expansion pack for the Rock Band Series, as Harmonix co-founder Alex Rigopulos has stated that this game "...is a new, full game title production built from the ground up,"[4]
Conception
The game was conceived with input from former Beatles' Sir Paul McCartney and Ringo Starr, along with Yoko Ono Lennon and Olivia Harrison, and Giles Martin. Martin, the co-producer of The Beatles LOVE project, will serve as Music Producer for this project.[5]
Track Listing
The game will draw from Beatles recordings while they were with EMI (1962-1969). Variety Magazine has reported that the game will include 45 master recordings, which marks the first time that any of the Beatles catalog has been offered in digital form.[6]
