Rocksmith 2014 – New Songs Announced

Ubisoft has today announced new songs for Rocksmith 2014 Edition. The game comes bundled with a special cable that allows you to plug any existing guitar into the game and start playing or learning. Those who purchase the special guitar bundle will also receive 6 additional DLC songs for free.

The guitar bundle contains the game, the Real Tone Cable, and an Epiphone Les Paul Junior. This bundle is exclusive to Amazon in the UK, and is likely to be limited in stock. The DLC pack that comes with this bundle includes the following 6 songs:

  • Chicago – 25 Or 6 To 4
  • Albert King – The Sky Is Crying
  • The Hives – Hate To Say I Told You So
  • The Lumineers – Ho Hey

We Are The Champions is a pleasant surprise, but the 6 songs for the guitar bundle look very good indeed. Here’s hoping that they can be downloaded as DLC regardless. The release of Rocksmith is still a long way off, and more songs should be added to this list as time goes on.

Rocksmith 2014 is released on PS3, Xbox 360, PC and Mac on October 25th 2014 in the UK.
