Rock Band 4 announced for PS4 and Xbox One

I don't think we actually know. Right now, the XBox's Store app shows Rock Band 4, but you can only purchase it as part of a 'Bundle' (the bundle itself has not been added). There's also a lengthy section of DLC tracks only available as part of a 'bundle'. So presumably, the bundle is the game + those tracks. But nothing has been officially announced. It appears they're a digital pre-order bonus, likely available for purchase in the future.

I should have taken a pic earlier, but there was a "Digital pre-order" page up briefly earlier today. It listed the 12 songs as the preorder bonus.
 
In preparation for this dlc madness (apparently eb Canada's flyers shows standalone game gets nothing), I was going to check the rock band store on the 360 and check what's available. Turns out the store is off. What gives?

are you talking about the separate rock band store application on xbox? I think they discontinued that a while back.
 
Rock Central may be down (Live has been having issues over the past week) if the store ain't working.

If that doesn't work you can download the Rock Band Blitz trial and use the store inside of that to browse
 
RB4 digital xbox pre orders are up in the UK

RB Blitz trial doesn't let you access the store.
 
I canceled and reordered since i think it said release delivery this time. Order details look the same.


Ooh, maybe i can sell my physical copy for $40 if the adapter stock isnt problematic.

I'm not seeing release date delivery. Are you in Prime?

Also, no one's going to need just the game disc for Xbox. There's no one to sell it to or I'd do the same.

You don't think anyone would want to buy physical for 25 plus 25 adapter to get the two for 50 instead of 80?

Still weird in this digital age that the instruments are only bundled with physical copies. Wish band in a box had no game copy, to be purchased separately. Then everyone has options that work for them.

Oh, maybe I misunderstood what you're doing.
 
Rock Band Legacy Adapter is also 1-per-person. Maybe a limited-stock thing? Something to be aware of. One-day delivery for $4, not seeing any release day option.

Probably to keep assholes from buying them all up and reselling them for 60$ a unit. And maybe as a side benefit keep people from accidentally buying 4 thinking they need one per instrument?
 
So any word on the sale of just a guitar? Kind of want to have a fourth person the weekend it comes out...Annoys me that there isn't an actual full band bundle.

ah, I stand corrected then, dunno why I thought that :P

They are planning to sell separate instruments in 2016, as of right now you're just going to find game bundles.
 
The Xbox One legacy adapter is back up on Amazon.
http://www.amazon.com/dp/B01541ACLQ/?tag=neogaf0e-20
Does this link not work for anyone else? I missed the adapter the last time it was briefly up on Amazon and I'm getting the same error message as before this time: We're sorry. The Web address you entered is not a functioning page on our site
I am on my laptop as I saw some people saying on other sites it doesn't work on mobile but I can't get the desktop version of the product page to load either. I'm really hoping I can get this adapter with that code mentioned later in the thread to get it for $10. I just pre-ordered the digital XBone version of RB4 but won't get to play it without that adapter!
 
im buying the guitar bundle on amazon and pre ordering rb4 on the store. I will sell the game in couple months when people got instruments ready.

It seems like Amazon took the page down, I imagine Microsoft wanted to announce the preorder stuff on their own terms - but the internet beat them to it.

It'll be back up tomorrow, though. It's clearly an official deal.

Yeah I'm sure you are right I just didn't like the vague verbiage it has about using that coupon code on Amazon's website. Something about "during this exclusive pre-order window, enter the code". As long as the "pre-order window" is until the game comes out and not some other finite amount of time they don't mention, then that's fine. I will happily order it when Amazon/Harmonix/MS is ready as long as I can get in on that deal!
 
This is what the description says on the RB4 page on the Xbox.

Additionally, Rock Band 4 supports most songs you have purchased for previous Rock Band titles. Don’t miss the special offer for players using Xbox 360 music game controllers!
 
Aussie here. Will the american version of the game and instruments work on our consoles?

Xbox one games are region free and console accessories should be region free.

I hope those pre-order DLC will be available day 1 for individual purchase D:
 
If I can get that $10 adapter I'll be so happy. I won't need to wait for standalone guitars to get the full band experience and have a backup guitar too.

It doesn't work for the Xplorer, correct?
 
How about the UK/Rest of the world? The description on the UK site talks about a $15 discount and points to amazon.com, so it looks like they just copied the description across regions.

No sign of the adapter or getting an official discount over here.
 
The Band in the Box version should come with a discount code for the Legacy Adaptor. Really annoying that I have to shell out for the full kit and still have to get the adaptor to use one of my own guitars.
 
Wow, the legacy adapter for ten bucks is a great price. I was teetering back and forth about whether or not I wanted to get this on release day but I guess that seals the deal for me.
 
That's indeed an excellent deal. The dumbest thing I did this year was sell my old guitar for 10EUR. I could have just used it with that adapter that I can now grab for 10$.

Instead now I have to get the Guitar bundle for 150 EUR, while missing the tracks that interest me the most due to them being digital pre-order DLC.

I should have just kept that guitar. Sigh.
 
Just ordered the adapter. This will be the first time I'll be able to play Rock Band with four simultaneous players if the opportunity arises.

What are the shipping options if you have Prime? Any info about release-day delivery or does it just give you two-day for free and an estimated date, but no mention of actual release day delivery?
 
Wow, that discount for the adapter twisted my arm into going digital on XB1. I'm all in.

The only reason I'm not preordering the digital game despite already getting the band in the box is because I'm out of money. I really want a digital version and it's a solid batch of preorder bonuses.
