Rock Band 4 players will have access to over 1,700 tracks on day one

Harmonix and Mad Catz have taken time out of their busy Rock Band 4 promotion schedule to let us know that Rock Band 4 is set to ship with access to over 1,700 tracks on day one. Including both their back catalog and new releases, that’s a pretty damn huge music library, and considering that most of it is DLC, an expensive one too.

They also dropped off a new “Electric” trailer to coincide with tomorrow’s big launch!

Our review is just about ready to go live, so make sure to check back soon for that.

Read on.
