Rock Band Green Day is to be the next standalone title in the franchise, following the release of The Beatles: Rock Band earlier this year.
"We've worked with the Rock Band team in the past year to enable our fans to play tracks from 21st Century Breakdown, and we're excited to now be working on a game, spanning our entire career," said Green Day's Billie Joe Armstrong. "We want people to fire this up, choose their favorite Green Day tracks, and play along with us as Rock Band avatars so they can feel what it's like to perform on stage as Green Day."
The game will feature the band’s “most-defining albums and key moments throughout their career” and is due for release in 2010 on Xbox 360, PS3 and Wii platforms. All tracks will be playable in previous version of the Rock Band series.
"Green Day's music and explosive live performances transcend age barriers," says Tom Whalley, Chairman and CEO, Warner Bros. Records. "By partnering with the band and Harmonix, Warner Bros. Reprise is thrilled to help create a Rock Band experience devoted exclusively to their impressive catalog. This game will appeal to fans of all ages, including those who love their recent best-selling albums and those who've loved Green Day throughout their long, incredible career."
