Ubisoft tuning up Rocksmith 2014 Edition for PS4, Xbox One

Unlike those once-popular entertainment-based guitar games, Ubisoft’s Rocksmith is somehow still going strong. Of course it’s more of a learning tool than a “game”, and utilizes a real guitar, so it sorta makes sense.

Those who want to upgrade to the latest and greatest version can pick up Rocksmith 2014 Edition for the PS4 and Xbox One in early November. The enhanced versions feature tuned up visuals, sharing, and in the case of the PS4 version, PS Vita remote play… as weird as that sounds.

Would-be guitar gods who have previously purchased Rocksmith content on the PS3 or Xbox 360 can redownload the content free of charge (thankfully).

Read on and check out some screens and the official announcement.

Rocksmith 2014 Edition for PS4, Xbox One:

Today, Ubisoft announced that Rocksmith 2014 Edition will launch on Xbox One, the all-in-one games and entertainment system from Microsoft and PlayStation 4 computer entertainment system on November 4, 2014. More than two million people have learned to play guitar and bass through the award-winning Rocksmith method, the fastest way to learn guitar.*

Players will be able to use integrated streaming and capture features on Xbox One and PlayStation 4 system to record and share their best performances, as well as show off their favorite custom tones from Tone Designer. Rocksmith 2014 Edition is better than ever on Xbox One and PlayStation 4 system with 1080p HD graphics for greater clarity and visual quality.

On PlayStation 4 system, Rocksmith 2014 Edition will support Remote Play through PlayStation Vita handheld entertainment system, where players can view songs at a locked mastery level without any scoring or input required; this is perfect for players looking to review a song in its entirety without feedback, study specific sections of songs or practice in another room when it?s more convenient.

Rocksmith 2014 Edition comes with more than 50 tracks; there are currently more than 300 additional songs available for purchase, with new add-on content added every week. For players making the jump to next-gen consoles, track libraries can be imported across Xbox 360 to Xbox One and PlayStation 3 to PlayStation 4 systems without having to repurchase content or pay additional licensing costs.

The standard edition includes the Rocksmith Real Tone Cable, a unique 1/4″-to-USB cable developed exclusively for Rocksmith. This revolutionary cable turns the guitar?s signal from analog to digital, allowing it to be recognized and played through video game consoles, as well as Windows PC and Mac.
