Rocksmith+ Celebrates Playstation launch with MEGA song drop!

Hello Rocksmith fans!

Hope you are ready for a lot of coverage, because we have some new friends joining us. They’ve been waiting awhile and they have Playstation 4’s and 5’s 👋

Before we get to the 164 SONG drop, there’s some other news…

Yes, that’s right METALLICA is now available worldwide, that’s one less band you have to VPN to play!

The only song actually not available worldwide is Whiskey in the Jar (not available in Japan). Did we mention that Rocksmith+ is available in Japan also now?

Alright, let’s see the patch notes, we didn’t get one in May so it’s going to be a lot of updates!

Only two songs from Rocksmith 2014!

We also noticed some licenses shift like American Pie is available in well… America. Every Rose has it’s Thorn cover seems like it’s now available in the UK and Ireland as well. It also seems like Incubus is available in some LATAM regions where it wasn’t before (Anna Molly for example).

Of course since there’s a new update there’s also a new What’s New video to check out. Nothing really hidden here, but we know what’s coming now!

June 11th, tracks from David Lee Roth and two covers from Van Halen, Runnin’ with The Devil and Ain’t Talkin’ Bout Love!

June 18th it’s more songs from Bad Company!

Finally!

and finally the variety drop of June 25th featuring singles including:

• death cab for cutie – I will follow you into the dark
• Outkast – Hey Ya 
• The Goo Goo Dolls – Iris
• and more!

I’m hoping it’s this Madonna cover…

How are you feeling about Rocksmith+ today? Did you grab it for PS4/PS5 yet? Let us know!
