Interestingly, the Special Edition Bundle (made up of the microphone, wireless drums, wireless guitar and the game) will be available from October 19th on both the PS3 and Xbox 360. Unfortunately for Wii and PS2 owners, they’ll have to wait until December for a full release of this exciting package.
As with the previous instalment, downloadable content will be a major factor here. The PlayStation 3, Xbox 360 and Wii versions will all support extra tracks, with those who buy the game brand new receiving 20 downloadable tracks for free sometime later this year.
