“Guitar Hero: Aerosmith” is just a few weeks away from release and the announcement of the much-rumored Metallica version of the game appears imminent, which is what Activision should have done in the first place.
Rumors began after a reference to the upcoming, but still-unannounced game, was found in a recent SEC filing by Activision.
There’s been no official announcement from Activision, but Metallica’s Web site offered some tantalizing tidbits.
“Let’s just say that perhaps, just maybe, if you’ve already mastered “One” on (Guitar Hero III: Legends of Rock), there might be a pile of ‘Tallica songs in your future. More details later this summer…”
Industry speculation suggests that it will come out after “Guitar Hero: World Tour,” otherwise known as “Guitar Hero 4″ — which like rival “Rock Band” will feature a full complement of instruments beyond the guitar. The title is expected this holiday season.
“Guitar Hero: Aerosmith” is slated for release June 29. Unlike other “Guitar Hero” games, which feature scores of tracks from multiple artists, the Aerosmith expansion will include primarily that band’s catalog, along with a smattering of songs from bands that Aerosmith wanted included.
The game “storyline” features Aerosmith’s rise from small venues in its Boston hometown to stadiums, with motion-capture animated versions of all band members.
