Ubisoft Job Posting confirms Piano Content

not a real image

Hello Rocksmith fans!

Yesterday some new job postings appeared on Ubisoft’s website. This has been happening since the announcement of Rocksmith+ but this time there’s something a bit more interesting than usual.

🎹🎹🎹🎹!

We’ve seen other evidence of this before release with this article, but this time it seems a lot more concrete.

Emphasis mine

JOB DESCRIPTION

 

Ubisoft Entertainment, a global leader in the video games and entertainment software industry, is currently seeking a Piano Content Developer for Rocksmith+. We are looking for a talented, motivated and experienced person to help establish and grow the future of an innovative music game. Qualified individuals are expected to be organized, with excellent communication skills, and have substantial experience in piano education, transcription, and performance.

WHAT YOU’LL DO

  • Help to develop a music education curriculum that is suitable for beginner, intermediate, and advanced piano players in both classical and modern piano styles
  • Compose and record custom Ubisoft-created lesson and song content
  • Perform (audio) and record (video) lesson content
  • Offer on-call educational and transcription support for different Ubisoft music teams
  • Produce accurate transcriptions of piano using proprietary music authoring software
  • Review musical transcriptions with thoughtfulness and attention to detail
  • Check audio mixes, piano tones, and progression/level development for QA purposes
  • Work periodically with QA to ensure reported bugs / issues are relevant to design requirements
  • Review Chord Chart arrangements for existing songs with thoughtfulness and attention to detail
  • Assist in the moderation of community-submitted musical arrangement

WHAT YOU’LL BRING 

  • Advanced understanding of piano/keyboard in multiple musical genres, including modern, pop/rock, classical and jazz
  • Comprehensive understanding of music theory
  • Experience in music education
  • Broad range of listening skills, including absolute and relative pitch, chord knowledge, and rhythm skills
  • Work efficiently with a high attention to detail
  • Experience with DAWs, music notation software (e.g. Guitar Pro, Finale, Sibelius), and MIDI is a necessity
  • Multi-instrumentalist, guitarist, vocalist
  • Composition background

In addition to this job posting there were others mostly hinting at the future of the Rocksmith+ community in regards to Live Streams, Video Content, and the now absent Content Creator position.

Onward and upward!


This isn’t the first game to tackle Piano Education, examples such as Synthesia, Phase Shift, and Rock Band 3 come to mind.

Can you imagine some of Rocksmith Remastered’s content with added Piano content? Or perhaps some of the Rocksmith+ content we saw in the beta? Or would you be more excited about some news about tracked vocals? Let us know!
