Guitar Hero 4 Getting Another Instrument
The Guitar Hero dudes are looking to up the ante a bit more, as Neversoft director Brian Bright told G4 that Guitar Hero World Tour is getting yet another instrument, one that will only be used in the game’s music creation mode.
While he wouldn’t reveal any details, G4 speculates that the new device is a keyboard. The studio had previously revealed that players can use the guitar controller to map out keyboard units and drum machine programming in the editor.
The fourth game in the installment is in development for release this Fall on PS2, PS3, Xbox 360 and Wii.
