Activision has issued a setlist update for its upcoming rhythm franchise revival Guitar Hero Live, introducing featured artists like Disturbed, OneRepublic, and Foster the People.

This week’s update firmly establishes Guitar Hero Live‘s focus on contemporary music, as many featured tracks are from currently touring artists and recently released albums.

Modern rock tracks shipping with Guitar Hero Live this fall include The Vines’ “Metal Zone,” Wolf Alice’s “Moaning Lisa Smile,” TV On The Radio’s “Lazerray,” and Foster the People’s “Coming of Age.”

Other songs featured in Guitar Hero Live‘s on-disc setlist include OneRepublic’s “Counting Stars,” Paramore’s “Now,” Cypress Hill ft. Tom Morello’s “Rise Up,” Asking Alexandria’s “The Final Episode,” and Disturbed’s “Down With the Sickness.”

Many of Guitar Hero Live‘s featured tracks debuted within the last year, contrasting the multi-generational approach adopted by Harmonix’s competing band simulation game Rock Band 4. This week’s announced songs for Rock Band 4 include Van Morrison’s 1967 hit “Brown Eyed Girl” and Aerosmith’s “Toys in the Attic,” originally released in 1975.

Rock Band 4 additionally includes classic rock tracks like The Who’s “The Seeker” and Ozzy Osbourne’s “No Rest for the Wicked” alongside newer songs from established artists like Paramore and St. Vincent.

Guitar Hero Live updates the rhythm-driven action of its series predecessors with a focus on live performance, presenting gameplay from a first-person perspective with live-action video backdrops. Guitar Hero Live also introduces a new guitar peripheral and Guitar Hero TV, an on-demand service that streams playable tracks and music videos from featured artists. It is being developed by DJ Hero creator FreeStyle Games as its first entry in the popular franchise.

Guitar Hero Live premieres for the Xbox One, PlayStation 4, Xbox 360, PS3, and Wii U platforms on October 20.

"Players can be excited about some remakes, which will allow us to revisit some of the games we've created in the past and modernize them," he says, implying that it could pertain to games made before Odyssey. "There are worlds in some of our older Assassin's Creed games that are still extremely rich."

Surfaced patent shows what an Xbox streaming console would’ve looked like

An Xbox Series X sits next to both Series S models.

There have been a few Xbox devices that have never come to fruition, one of which was Keystone, a prototype for an affordable game streaming device you could hook up to your TV or monitor. Thanks to a surfaced patent, we've gotten an even closer look at what it would've potentially looked like.

The patent, first spotted by Windows Central, gives us a more complete view of the device. We've previously seen the Keystone in the flesh. Microsoft Gaming head Phil Spencer is known for hiding teases and interesting collectibles on the shelf in his office. In a 2022 X (formerly Twitter) post congratulating Bethesda on Fallout's 25th anniversary, you can see a small white device on the top shelf that's actually a Keystone prototype. Xbox told Digital Trends that it was a version of the device made before it decided to "refocus our efforts on a new approach.”
