Harmonix Currently Working On Next Rock Band Title

We’re still waiting on The Beatles Rock Band, but it looks like Harmonix is already hard at work on their next title. According to MTV Games vice president Scott Guthrie, the development team is working on what is ‘effectively the next game.’

Asked whether Harmonix will release another artist game or Rock Band 3 in 2010, Guthrie told the Market for Computer and Video Games, “We’re exploring both - and possibly will do both. The Harmonix development team are working on what is effectively the next game, or ‘Rock Band 3.’

“We aren’t standing still - we will keep moving into new areas and look at new technologies that our platform holder partners are also developing, such as Project Natal from Microsoft. We’re working with them to pull some things together.”

“So it’s a pretty exciting time for the future of our music game business.”

The word ‘effectively’ seems important here, because it suggests that we’re in for another spinoff. At this point though, all we can do is speculate.

In the meantime, The Beatles Rock Band release date is getting ever closer. Look for it on September 9.
