New “Beatles: Rock Band” Trailer Arrives, Alleged Track List Leaks
Another sneak peek at the upcoming The Beatles: Rock Band has been released, which again shows the amazing attention to detail that went into producing a game worthy of the Fab Four’s esteemed catalog. The newest trailer, via IGN, shows clips of “Twist and Shout” being performed in Liverpool, “Can’t Buy Me Love” on the Ed Sullivan Show stage, a “Yellow Submarine” dreamscape and a “Revolution” filled with wartime imagery. Additionally, we also see how the actual gameplay will look on-screen, including the three-part harmony feature that will make its debut with TB:RB.

In addition to the new trailer, the full video for “Ticket to Ride” as performed by the in-game Beatles at the digital Shea Stadium has also been posted on the game’s official Website. As Rock Daily reported last week, The Beatles: Rock Band will also unearth previously unreleased audio and studio banter from the Beatles, as well as a “story mode” that gives the back-story of the band’s songs. The Beatles: Rock Band will be released September 9th, the same day the Fab Four’s entire remastered catalog is reissued.

Video game blog Worth Playing has an alleged complete The Beatles: Rock Band 45-song track list that comes from an upcoming issue of Game Informer. If it’s accurate, as advertised, it spans the Beatles’ entire catalog, from “I Want To Hold Your Hand” to the “Within You Without You/Tomorrow Never Knows” mash-up from 2006’s Love compilation. “All You Need Is Love” will also be released as downloadable content, with proceeds going to Doctors Without Borders, while the entire Abbey Road will be available for download soon after 09/09/09.
