Rock Band is coming to iPhone and iPod Touch. It were our colleagues from Techcrunch who discovered it whilst wandering the halls of the CTIA convention in San Diego on October 7th. In a small kiosk dedicated to Rock Band Mobile they spotted an LCD screen endlessly looping through a demo reel of EA Mobile’s portfolio. Right at the end of the reel the follwing text popped up “is coming to iPhone”.
The application will have premium content. It will also have a 4-player multiplayer through Bluetooth.
Rock Band for iPhone allows iMusicians to choose between vocals, drums, bass, or guitar. The latter three offer game play – tapping the screen on the correct notes. The vocals are also performed through tapping rather than actually singing, as with the console versions of the game.
The game will come with 20 integrated tracks. There will also be other songs available for purchase for a yet unknown amount.
The game has now been submitted to Apple and is pending approval.
