"What is it like to be once again working on a Rock Band title, especially considering that it has been five years since a dedicated console version was released?  Are you approaching development a little differently this time around?

Nick Chester: For sure, the studio needed a bit of distance from Rock Band, to explore other possibilities in the music space. That’s actually really healthy, and a bunch of really interesting things came out of that. Disney Fantasia: Music Evolved, for example, let players use their bodies to remix and create music; A City Sleeps took the concept of a shoot ‘em up and infused it with music; and we started work experimenting on some virtual reality projects, one of which we’ll ship for PlayStation Morpheus next year, Harmonix Music VR.

But even during that time, we knew that at some point we’d return to the Rock Band franchise. And when that time came, the first thing the team did was to lock themselves in rooms and play those earlier games. What they found was that they’re still incredibly fun; the core design of the games absolutely holds up. But at the same time, that distance allowed them to get honest and to see places where the experience could be improved, and that’s really where we started with Rock Band 4.

In terms of how we approached it differently, it was always about paying attention to the things that mattered the most to the broadest category of players, and really doubling down on those things. Rock Band 3 was a massive title that we’re really proud of, but the scope of it was a bit out of control when we look at it in hindsight, and that doesn’t necessarily make for a better experience. So really, Rock Band 4 for us is all about focus.

With Rock Band 4 having backwards compatibility and prior DLC access, are we unlikely to see another band orientated like The Beatles: Rock Band?

Nick Chester: The way we look at The Beatles: Rock Band is that it stands on its own. The music, the dreamscapes, it’s really about that entire experience. With that said, we get that people would love to play The Beatles music in the games going forward, but we don’t have any plans for that right now.

It was announced earlier in the year that Harmonix would include compatibility with older peripherals, as well as offering new players a new set of Madcatz Controllers. What made Harmonix decide to include compatibility with older peripherals?

Nick Chester: It was basically a mandate from day one to make that happen. We’ve always been a strong supporter of making sure that if players have music game controllers, they can use them with our games. That goes back to last generation where we worked to make competing peripherals play nice with our games. We know these titles are investments, so it was important for us to get last-generation instruments working on new hardware. There didn’t seem to be any good reason for us to force players to buy new instruments if they already had functioning hardware, and we knew we could do awesome things in the software with the hardware that already existed.
