Guitar Hero Creators at RedOctane Announce Stage Tour for Fall Release

RedOctane positions the game as a long-term platform built with community input.

Overview

  • Stage Tour is slated to launch this fall on PC via Steam and a wide range of consoles, with specific platforms to be announced.
  • A closed alpha is planned for late spring to early summer, and sign-ups are expected to open soon.
  • The game supports guitar, drums, and microphones as well as keyboard and mouse, and it can be played solo or in bands of up to four.
  • An official Gibson partnership brings Gibson, Epiphone, and Kramer branding, with a new Kramer-modeled guitar bundle planned and a drum controller likely arriving before launch.
  • RedOctane plans digital distribution with a controller bundle option, promises seasonal events instead of sequels, and lists support from Eidos Montréal for motion capture and QA alongside additional work by Third Kind Games.
