Although the game was announced way back in late October, we’d heard nothing more on the Harmonix-developed, Beatles-themed Rock Band game than the fact that it was in development … until today! The official press release from Apple Corps. and Harmonix this morning titles the game The Beatles: Rock Band (keeping the branding, eh?) and sets it to release on Xbox 360/PS3/Wii on Sept. 9.

In keeping with the plastic instrument/rhythym game tradition of releasing multiple SKUs with multiple price points, Harmonix has detailed the packages as follows:

  • The Beatles: Rock Band Software – Xbox 360, Playstation 3, Wii: $59.99 MSRP
  • The Beatles: Rock Band Standalone Guitars – Xbox 360, Playstation 3, Wii: $99.99 MSRP
  • The Beatles: Rock Band Limited Edition Premium Bundle -Xbox 360, Playstation 3, Wii: $249.99 MSRP

For the time being, we’re sticking with our already perfectly capable plastic instruments and picking up the $59.99 version, thank you very much. If you’re hankerin’ for some teasin’, the game’s official site is now open and lookin’ mighty classy if we do say so ourselves.

    I hope that the ratings for this game are as good as the hypes are making it out to be. People seem really excited about this, but I feel like Beatles music isn’t exactly Rock Band material.
