Rock Band 3 Setlist Revealed

MTV Games and developer Harmonix have today announced the official setlist for the forthcoming Rock Band 3, providing 83 new tracks that should appease all sorts of music lovers.

After accidentally having their setlist leaked by a journalist filming them at GamesCom last week, the guys at Harmonix later decided to make light of the situation and uploaded a light-hearted video where they themselves 'accidentally' leaked the setlist for Rock Band 3.

Today, Harmonix, the world's premier music video game developer and MTV Games, have confirmed the entire 83 song on-disc soundtrack for the highly anticipated Rock Band 3 music video game, including new tracks from Jimi Hendrix, Avenged Sevenfold, Paramore, The White Stripes, Jane's Addiction, Phish, Anthrax, The Cure, Bob Marley, Def Leppard, Ozzy Osbourne, Dire Straits, The Smiths, Foreigner, Lynyrd Skynyrd, The Doors and many more. Rock Band 3 will be released Oct. 26 in North America and Oct. 29 in the rest of the world for the Xbox 360 video game and entertainment system from Microsoft, PlayStation3 computer entertainment system, Nintendo WiiTM and Nintendo DSTM.

"The Rock Band 3 soundtrack represents the strongest, most diverse collection of music ever assembled for a video game," said Paul DeGooyer, senior vice president of electronic games, music and programming for MTV Games. "The addition of keyboards and vocal harmonies to the Rock Band platform massively broadens the music selection available to our players. You haven't sung Queen's epic "Bohemian Rhapsody" unless you've sung the harmony parts - and you can't do that unless you have Rock Band 3."

It's a varied setlist that should have something to please just about every player. If not, the current 1,500 downloadable tracks should easily cover that as all downloadable content will work with this new game.

Launching this October, the game is playable using existing peripherals from prior Rock Band and Guitar Hero games, as well as the new ones being made specifically for this game. It'll also be the first music game to incorporate a keyboard into the mix. The game is out on the 26th of October in North America and the 29th in Europe.
