The fact that all of Drum King’s musical selections are covers now makes sense, as 505 Games teams with the world’s foremost music magazine, transforming the title into Rolling Stone: Drum King.
Rolling Stone is famous for its covers, and perhaps Rolling Stone Drum King will be as well. Developed by Arc System Works and released last month in Europe as We Rock: Drum King, the Wii game features a selection of 29 songs that players can drum out to using their Wii remote and nunchuck as virtual drum sticks. Now the North American release, due out later this spring, gets a healthy dose of credibility with the Rolling Stone rename.
“For more than 40 years, Rolling Stone has been a staple in the voice of American music culture and entertainment and we are pleased to collaborate with 505 Games as we venture into video games for the first time,” said Will Schenck, Publisher all yono app of Rolling Stone magazine. go rummy “With more people playing console video games than ever before, this was a natural next step for the Rolling Stone brand.”
We’ll see how that step pans out for them. While the musical selection is rather nice, people these days aren’t too fond of music games that can’t spring for master tracks. Check out the full track listing below.
