Rock Band Coming to PSP

Harmonix and EA have announced plans to release Rock Band Unplugged - a Rock Band game exclusively for the PSP. The game will be available in North America and Europe beginning June 9, 2009.

"Rock Band Unplugged reinvents band gameplay while staying true to the authentic feel of the Rock Band console games," said Bob Picunko, Senior Vice President of Electronic Games for MTV Games. "Harmonix delivers innovation with every game they develop and we are excited to continue our long-list of industry firsts with the Rock Band in-game wireless music store on the PSP system."

Rock Band Unplugged will use key Rock Band and Rock Band 2 features such as overdrive and chords, but relies on your hands instead of the guitar or drums. You can play as lead/bass guitars, drums and vocals, and the game has several modes including World Tour, Band Survival and Warm Up.

The game will offer 40 master recordngs, including nine songs exclusive to the PSP version of the game. More tracks will be available for purchase through the Playstation Store.

The following tracks will launch exclusively through Rock Band Unplugged on the PSP system for a limited time before becoming downloadable content for the other platforms:
  • 3 Doors Down - 'Kryptonite'
  • AFI - 'Miss Murder'
  • Alice in Chains - 'Would?'
  • Audioslave - 'Gasoline'
  • Black Tide - 'Show Me the Way'
  • Blink 182 - 'What's My Age Again'
  • Freezepop - 'Less Talk More Rokk'
  • Jackson 5 - 'ABC'
