The
Rocksmith Website announces the
Rocksmith team is "thrilled" to let us know
they are working on a new project (thanks
Polygon). They don't say what this is, so we'll have to wait for more
details. But they do offer some bad news for fans of the real music game, saying
this means they will not be producing further Rocksmith DLC. They do plan on
continuing their weekly dev stream in a new format. Here's word:
Hello,
Rocksmith Players!
We have big news today: The Rocksmith team, both here in Ubisoft San
Francisco and globally, is thrilled to finally let you know that we’ve been hard
at work on a new project!
To that end, we now need to shift focus away from DLC creation. As of this
week’s Opeth Song Pack, Rocksmith Remastered has concluded its scheduled DLC
releases. After 383 weeks of DLC releases, this pack brings us to a total of
1570 songs in the Rocksmith library, spanning over 7 decades (or 3 centuries, in
the case of Bachsmith) and covering a multitude of genres for guitar and bass.
For over a decade, we’ve watched players learn, grow, and constantly surprise us
with your talent, creativity, and eagerness to help one another reach your
goals. We truly could not be more proud to play a part in this guitar journey
with you.
Although we will no longer be releasing new DLC, we still have weekly online
content planned for Rocksmith fans. The Rocksmith Dev Stream will continue (in a
new format), along with some more surprises. We will also continue to share
updates for our new project when we’re ready on our website,
Twitter,
Facebook, and
Instagram.
From everyone at Rocksmith and Ubisoft, we thank you. Your continued support of
Rocksmith is humbling, and we can’t wait to start the next leg of our music
learning journey together.
