RedOctane Games is comprised of veterns of the original music rhythm game era, honoring everything fans loved about the golden age of music games while building something new and fresh: a massive setlist spanning six decades, an authentic Gibson® guitar collection, a cast of 50 bandmates, and fresh game modes designed for everyone from first-timers to the most dedicated shredders.
Stage Tour allows for up to four players locally, and all four players will be able to enjoy any combination of Guitar, Drums, Microphone or Gamepad. The game also supports cross-platform online co-op play, and online leaderboards.
“Today we’re pulling back the curtain and giving fans a glimpse at what’s behind,” said Simon Ebejer, Studio Head at RedOctane Games. “We’ve shared our progress with fans publicly and with members of the community in closed alpha builds earlier than is typical in the games industry, allowing their feedback to shape the development of Stage Tour. Familiar but fresh has been our mantra from day one, and whether you’re picking up a guitar controller, drum controller, a microphone, or a gamepad to play Arcade Mode, there’s a way to play that feels made for you, because it was.”
Stage Tour features multiple game modes. Tour Mode is an all-new, roguelite-inspired single-player experience where fans choose their path, pick their bandmates and hit the road. Every tour plays out differently, putting an endlessly replayable twist on a tried-and-tested formula. Quickplay and Practice modes feature new ways to play, including accuracy-focused Judgements and a casual Karaoke mode built for nights when the party just wants to sing. Quickplay and Judgements mode supports up to four players in any combination of Guitar Controllers, Drum Controllers, Microphones, gamepads and keyboard & mouse — whether that’s a full band or four guitars shredding together.
With a multi-year partnership with Gibson, Stage Tour will bring more than 180 authentic guitars from Gibson, Epiphone, and Kramer into the game at launch, the largest collection of real-world guitars ever featured in a music game. The game will also feature 50 bandmates to choose from, each with their own style and skins, giving players more than 150 unlockable combinations at launch.
