Followers who grew up within the period of Guitar Hero and DJ Hero could bear in mind the title RedOctane, largely for the basic guitar controllers. Apart from now being beneath writer Embracer Group, RedOctane is making a 2025 comeback, as RedOctane Video games.
RedOctane Video games has been shaped as of Wednesday August 6, as reported by Sport Informer. The unique RedOctane was based by Charles and Kai Huang, and contributed to the historical past of Music/Rhythm video games with Harmonix when the preliminary installment(s) of the Guitar Hero franchise debuted with the long-lasting plastic guitar controllers with color-coded strum buttons. This was 20 years in the past through the mid 2000s, which noticed the rise of GH‘s rival EA-published franchise Rock Band in following years.
GH writer Activision shuttered RedOctane and the GH franchise in 2010 following the discharge of that yr’s GH title Warriors of Rock. Regardless of the franchise being rebooted 5 years later (now practically 10 years in the past) with Guitar Hero Reside, Music/Rhythm video games haven’t made a full return to the style’s heyday of a decade prior.
However that is perhaps slowly altering, as RedOctane Video games goals to launch an authentic music/rhythm sport someday within the coming years (by way of PC Gamer). Moreover, the studio’s revival has been introduced in a launch trailer on YouTube:
We’re not simply making video games, we’re creating related rhythm experiences that unite cutting-edge controllers, genre-defining titles, and a thriving group, all transferring to the identical beat. From day one, it is a journey we take collectively. The following nice rhythm sport is within the works.
What do you suppose? May the Music/Rhythm style make a return to kind, beginning with RedOctane Video games’s upcoming new title? Tell us under!
