MCV can reveal that the long awaited follow-up to hard rocking rhythm-action game Guitar Hero will be released in November, shortly after it is released in the US on November 6th.
Guitar Hero II will be available in two SKUs, one with the replica Gibson SG controller and one without to cater for owners of the original. It will feature improved multiplayer options and a new line-up of tracks, which has yet to be revealed.
“We’re absolutely overjoyed to be able to announce that the European release is as close to the US street date we can possibly make it,” says Dave Noble, business development director at RedOctane. “RedOctane is now in a position to be able to deliver Guitar Hero II to games players all over the world at roughly the same time – and we’re committed to ensuring the widest possible range of tunes to anyone with a Guitar Hero Gibson SG controller.”
