180+ AUTHENTIC GUITARS. 50+ BANDMATES.
Through its multi-year partnership with Gibson, Stage Tour brings 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.
Fans can unlock legendary instruments as they play, building their ultimate collection and taking real rock heritage on stage with them.
Joining them is a roster of over 50 bandmates, each with their own style and skins, giving players more than 150 unlockable combinations at launch.
“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.”
FAMILIAR, BUT FRESH
Easy to pick up, hard to master, Stage Tour pairs familiar favorites such as Quickplay and Practice modes with new ways to play, including accuracy-focused Judgements and a casual Karaoke mode built for nights when the party just wants to sing.
Headlining the lineup is Tour Mode, 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. More on Tour Mode will be revealed in the weeks and months ahead as Stage Tour continues its journey towards launch.
PLAY YOUR WAY
Anyone who experienced the thrill of rhythm music games in their heyday, will feel right at home as soon as they pick up their Guitar Controller with Stage Tour. Alongside Guitar Controllers, Drum Controllers and Microphones, Stage Tour introduces full support for standard gamepads as well as keyboard & mouse, with custom note charts built specifically for each input rather than simply adapting the traditional guitar experience.
The Guitar Controller sets the standard for the iconic Stage Tour experience, but now anyone can jump in from the very first song with the controller they already own.
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.
