Activision has announced that Guitar Hero: Warriors of Rock will be hitting UK store shelves on September 24, 2010. A U.S. release will follow on September 28.
Speaking during the publisher’s investor call yesterday, chief financial officer Thomas Tippl commented, "Year-to-date, the music category has been relatively quiet due in part to lack of new releases," adding, "Warriors of Rock will be our only Guitar Hero release this year, and given its game quality and our full line-up of marketing activities, should generate consumer and retail excitement.
"This year’s game will introduce for the first time a deep story mode with more challenges than ever before, rock-inspired new hardware, the ability to use your existing Guitar Hero music library and an authentic set list featuring 95 songs.
"The first million units of Warriors of Rock will be bundled and simultaneously launched with the first new Soundgarden album released in over 10 years."
It’s worth pointing out however that above Soundgarden album deal will not be offered to punters in European territories.
