Rock Band 4

Rock Band 4, the new entry of the series developed by Harmonix, has been released not too long ago on PlayStation 4 and Xbox One and has managed to become quite successful despite the core experience not being all that different from the previous entry of the series. Making the game even more popular is the constant addition of new DLC songs which expand the experience further. Today Harmonix has revealed some new DLC songs that will be made available for the game very soon.

Starting tomorrow, it will be possible to purchase three extra songs for the game: Long Cool Woman (In A Black Dress) by The Hollies, Lust for Life by Iggy Pop and Bad Case of Loving Yoy by Robert Palmer. A trailer showcasing the three new Rock Band 4 songs has also been shared online and you can check it out right below.

Last month more Rock Band 4 DLC songs have been made available on both PlayStation 4 and Xbox One. The Aerosmith Hits Song Pack 02, featuring Rats In The Cellar, Eat The Rich, Cryin, Dude Looks Like A Lady, Love In An Elevator, and Seasons Of Wither, is now available for purchase for both formats foe the price of $9.99.

Rock Band 4 features the same core gameplay features that have made the series popular as well as new social interactions and features that let players improvise more such as the freestyle solos on guitar and freeform melodies in multi-part vocals. The game also offers backwards compatibility with content and hardware from previous entries of the series, allowing those playing on Xbox One to play DLC songs from previous entries purchased for Xbox 360 and those playing on PlayStation 4 to use songs purchased for the PlayStation 3 games.

Rock Band 4 is now available in all regions on PlayStation 4 and Xbox One. More news on the game’s upcoming DLC packs will be coming soon so stay tuned for all the latest news.

Battle Pass for Crash Team Rumble is not necessary to unlock new characters; the upcoming closed beta

The competitive multiplayer spinoff of Crash Team Rumble, which will be available on both the PlayStation 5 and PlayStation 4, will debut on June 20. A closed beta for the game will be held in the coming weeks, and the good news that character unlocks won’t be dependent on Battle Pass progress was just revealed.

Publisher Activision made its intentions very clear in a lengthy blog post, writing, “New heroes and powers will be unlocked through in-game challenges rather than being connected to the Battle Pass because we want every player to have a balanced experience while enjoying the N. Sane fun that Crash Team Rumble has to offer.” “For those who wish to get a WUMP on the season’s newest looks, Battle Passes will solely reward cosmetic goods; however, cosmetics will still be earnable through participation in seasonal events.”

Those who preorder the platformer/battle royale mix can take part in a limited beta between April 20 and 24. For those who want to jump right in, online matches against other players and practice matches versus AI bots will be offered.

How does Crash Team Rumble strike you? Will you participate in the closed beta test?

Indie Not on PlayStation Wins BAFTA Game of the Year, Beating PS5, PS4’s Greatest Hits

God of War Ragnarok and Elden Ring were both beaten out for the British Academy of Film and Television Arts (BAFTA) award for Best Game by a tiny little independent title called Vampire Survivors, which isn’t even accessible on PlayStation systems. Do you really believe that?

Putting all lightheartedness aside, Vampire Survivors was something of a phenomenon in 2022, and you would have to be living under a rock (or live offline) to have missed it. It burst into prominence and eventually became a favorite among industry insiders. A fiendishly addictive fundamental gameplay loop hides beneath a deceptively simple exterior, earning developer Luca Galante, aka Poncle, this year’s BAFTA for Game Design as well as another honor.

There hasn’t been any news of the mega-hit coming to PlayStation as of yet, so there’s probably some sort of exclusivity agreement in place or anything else blocking it. Perhaps one day we will be granted access to it, but until then, console yourself with one of the numerous high-end games on our preferred platform, such as The Last of Us, which won Best Game back in 2014.

In slightly related news, Shuhei Yoshida, a PlayStation legend, received a BAFTA Fellowship, the highest honor bestowed by the organization.

What do you think about the Vampire Survivors’ victory—do you believe it was well-deserved or totally absurd?

While we felt Crusader Kings 3: Console Edition was fantastic when it was launched on the PS5 last year, we were only able to play the base game. We are incredibly grateful that the great Royal Court extension will be coming to consoles. This is a regal proclamation that we could not be more delighted to make.

It’s pretty difficult to switch back after you’ve experienced the conveniences and enhancements that Royal Court offers to the well-stocked table, as anyone who has played Crusader Kings 3 on PC knows. It’s not just for show; players will be able to use trophies and priceless pieces of art to adorn their throne room, which adds a minor RPG system to an already magnificently complex adventure.

If you haven’t already and like the basic Crusader King’s experience, we highly encourage you to give Royal Court a try. This expansion is the ideal reason to jump back in for another round of backroom maneuvering. Are you going to create your own royal court?
