Hello Rocksmith fans!
Welcome to the return of the Variety Pack! It’s been 115 days since Variety Pack XII, and it’s great to add another FOUR artists to the Rocksmith Remastered Library!
As revealed over the weekend @thorogoodmusic comes to Rocksmith with the his hit single of the self-titled 1982 album, Bad to the Bone! Today we can confirm (via Xbox AU) that a song that I have hoped to be in a music game for some time, it’s @SoulAsylum’s Runaway Train (Grave Dancers Union – 1993). Michael Scott should be happy, because there’s finally some @BillyJoel coming to Rocksmith, off his 1977 album The Stranger, it’s Only the Good Die Young. Finally something for the post-hardcore/emo kids of Rocksmith, for the first time in a music game Face Down (Don’t You Fake It – 2006) by @redsuitjump!
Wow, that’s some variety!
