There's an entire generation that has no idea why the rest of us have been eagerly waiting over a decade for this announcement. Just need those drums to follow. And hey, Fortnite Festival, maybe look at switching vocals from a note highway to karaoke style like vocals are in RB pretty please. ;)
Drums just need to be a dongle for electronic drumkits... the mass produced drumkits die too often. Just give me the oppertunity to plug in an electric drumkit
@@user-nl2bi2kx9k Extremely out of touch comment. Rock Band is from the creators of the original Guitar Heros. The last main installment in the Guitar Hero franchise shuttered it's servers after 3 years. Meanwhile the latest Rock Band, despite coming out years earlier, remains successful over a decade later, discontinuing support only to move on to their next project. The fans of this genre have been as unanimous as it gets in gaming for the support of Harmonix having the superior product. You're trying to speak authoritatively in a space you clearly are not a part of nor understand, bud.
currently using older ps2 guitar hero guitars etc work on festival rn, all you need is a program called joytokey, theres just no strumming yet as thats not implemented into festival at all yet :) @@maxessy1882
definitely will be picking this up for Rockband 4, I've been hoping they'd start producing more of these music controllers, since they are kinda pricey to replace lol
As awesome as that would be, the genre itself is nowhere near as popular as it once was and is now more of a niche market, especially since the last GH game didn't do all that well in sales.
Praying this isn’t just a one off and we get a new Guitar Hero or Rockband. Couldn’t see a company releasing a piece of equipment for just one fortnite game.
The quality of the wooden replicas from RB2 was on a whole other level. Mine still plays like it's fresh out of the box. They came in candy apple red and three tone sunburst.
so excited for this, but please do drums!!! also wondering if we *do* ever get drums, if we'd get the option for them to be like the typical RB pro-drums. Keyboards would be sick too but baby steps lol
@strangler1 To be fair, they were asking an absolutely ridiculous amount on a website that wasn't known at *all*. It was p much just a marketing ploy to advertise the website that Harmonix invested in/backed to make it compete more with Kickstarter - which, obviously, as well failed unfortunately.
Guessing the “PDP logo” button will be for Overdrive activation. It was a thing on the original, 360/PS3 era guitars, but the RB4 instruments omitted it on the Sony side due to them deprecating the Select button and making it Share, and they required all controllers to have it available. (It still worked on the Xbox One, since they just renamed their Back button to View.) They eventually patched in an ability to activate Overdrive by pressing left on the D-pad, but it was a clunky solution.
Heres my biggest question.....will it have the auto calibration like on rb4....i really dont feel like sitting there for an hour trying to get it perfect
They recently dropped "Rock Band Rivals" down to $10 in the Xbox store, but I've been unable to find any controllers (new or used) for it that aren't several hundred dollars. Hoping this isn't priced too high. Really love the folding neck and dongle slot. =)
I'd make the faceplate magnetic for easier customization And hopefully Fortnite Festival is like Rockband or Guitar Hero with unlimited song support and real colors (green, orange, ...) Just looked up Fortnite Festival and all the tabs are just purple. They should really switch that on release of compatibility
That's way too steep. For a third party piece of plastic, this really needs to not exceed $100-$150 or it's gonna fall incredibly short of where it should've been. They can easily revive the virtual guitar era
Been wanting to pick up a Guitar Hero-like game again for a while, if this thing has a nice price point I'll likely to get one. Maybe I'll even actually play Fortnite Festival
USB-C is charging Only and Dongle is only for Audio Latency if you use the 3.5 mm audio port. Still will only connect to PC via Bluetooth 😔 Xbox Version will connect via the Xbox wireless Adapter. Acai confirmed all this on stream. Also retailing for 110 - 130 USD. Scalpers gonna have a field day on this one. Looks like my Xplorer and Jag will never be retired 😭
Nice work buuuuuuuuuuuut everyone has been trying to get a hold of the drums also. Hopefully someone makes some drum kits or we can hope for rock band 5 🤘🤘
the Rock Band guitars (which this guitar is based on) have always had the quiet strum bar. there may be unofficial mods available in the future to swap out the strum bar for a more clicky guitar hero one

Not everyone likes Rockband, and the 'latest' one came out in 2015, 9 years ago.

You are crazy 🤣🤣
Lemme know how that goes lol.
@@NonexistentPerson3582it has been done before
i’ve never been more excited for a new plastic guitar
the cat at the end ruined the video for me..
If it works with Clone Hero i’ll 100% pick this up
most likely will, it has a usb c port
This was most definitely made for clone hero
it’s got type C and a dongle there’s no way it doesn’t
You mean YARG 😏😏
It’s a controller of course you can
FOR THOSE WHO ARE WONDERING! YES THIS CONTROLLER WILL WORK FOR PC AND YES YARG, CLONE HERO, RB4 AND FESTIVAL

If so, this will sell like enchiladas

@@alucard624I’m not sure if you’re aware but TikTok kinda revived guitar hero 😂 so many people playing it now
Desperately
Give us back the freaking DRUMS!
One thing at a time, we must make this new guitar explodes in sales to get the drums
What’s so special about drums
We have never been more back than we are right now.
Can’t wait to use this while playing Elden Ring 2
Praying this isn’t just a one off and we get a new Guitar Hero or Rockband. Couldn’t see a company releasing a piece of equipment for just one fortnite game.
Unless that one Fortnite game is the beginning of Rockband 5.
guitar hero probably wont happen unless fortnite fest/rock band 5 takes off
yeah fortnite festival is literally rock band 5 atp @@Samuri5hit84
The modded guitar community has also been popping off lately, pretty sure they also want a piece of that market

It still hurts that RB4 never made it to PC =(
I'm sure everyone playing Clone Hero now regrets not supporting the fundraiser for it.
emulate it

It's a shame Guitar Hero isn't on Steam lol
it looks so much better than the pictures, sleek black it looks so cool
1:33 "riff section" on the notes that are used for solos? LOL
😂😂😂
if the riffs are octaves lol, but seriously the riff section is usually on the 1st to the 7th fret & 8th if it's Metalcore. The 5-7-8 and 0-0-0

Where was this 15 years ago when we needed it. Hope they're making a new game to go with. Guitar hero legacy!
They did and its called Fortnite Festival!
Fortnite Festival is adding support for these in fortnites rock band style festival gamemode
Now we just need the other instruments made and we will be golden!
Hope these hold up better than past one's that they made.
Heres my biggest question.....will it have the auto calibration like on rb4....i really dont feel like sitting there for an hour trying to get it perfect
they really thought of everything this time around. so excited to pick this up!!
Genuinely the perfect universal guitar controller. So hype
Cant wait to crack this one open!
Bring back Guitar Hero and let me shred nostalgia like no tomorrow!🤘🔥
Is the USB just for charging, or can it be used for data, too, instead of wireless?
Hyped! Going to use this for rock band 4!
The Rock Band Jaguar, the last one released, has the folding neck, too.
it was made by the same company too, it's basically a refreshed Jaguar without a Fender license, and with a rechargeable battery
FINALLY!!
THANK YOU THANK YOU (tears)
They recently dropped "Rock Band Rivals" down to $10 in the Xbox store, but I've been unable to find any controllers (new or used) for it that aren't several hundred dollars. Hoping this isn't priced too high. Really love the folding neck and dongle slot. =)
IM READY! WILL BUY!!
As someone who misses Guitar Hero so much, you can take my money now.
Will it have a switch to work on Xb1? How about working on Xb360 for the old Guitar Hero games?
Does anyone know the dimensions of the PDP RIFFMASTER when folded, I'm wondering if my old guitar bag will fit it. Thanks.
Yea thats cool and all... But can you play a fighting game on it?
WERE SO FRIGGING BACK AND IT COMES OUT BEFORE MY B-DAY IN MAY
Does it work with Brutal Legend if so definitely getting it
The guitars compatible with rockband but is the rockband fender compatible with fortnite? If not idk if ill buy one :/
Where are we going to be able to buy it at and will it hook up to xbox?
Posible for Nintendo Switch such Fortnite Festival.
Yessss!!!!! Fortnight Festival got the kid in me Guitar hero crazy!!! This can’t come out soon enough!!!🙏🙏🙏 super stoked🤙😁
such a pretty guitar
Well, if it works for PHASE SHIFT it would be nice to have someone play bass while I'm on the drums.
"What are you rocking out for days?"
When GH 3 launched? Yuh!
Will the Xbox version also be compatible with PC?
But will it work on old hardware and older music games like rock band 1 or 2, guitar hero 2 or 3 and beyond? And will it work on the Xbox 360?
I'd get one if it worked for ps3, or if they remastered or brought out a new gh for ps4/5.
It only work for Xbox Series or One and PS4 or PS5 for Rock Band 4
Wait what games will this be available for for ps5
Will they be bringing out new games
This would be cool for the Shawzin in Warframe
Hopefully they make enough to go around with todays scaplers and resellers everything popular flies off the shelf and sold for twice as much
1:55 you were thinking about the guitar hero guitar, the rock band ones never made sounds
Finally, a real headphone jack for guitar controller. Hold rock band controllers had something like a jack but it’s not made for headphones apparently
Make a story driven Stranger Things Guitar Hero spin off with Eddie Munson at the center of it!!! PLEAAASEEEEE WE NEEEED ITTTT!!!!
I'd make the faceplate magnetic for easier customization
And hopefully Fortnite Festival is like Rockband or Guitar Hero with unlimited song support and real colors (green, orange, ...)
Just looked up Fortnite Festival and all the tabs are just purple. They should really switch that on release of compatibility
will these work with the original guitar heros?
this controller looks dope
Are the frets mechanical switches?
Speechless
Will definitely buy if it does come compatible with FN Festival & the pricetag isn’t that steep. Prolly $200 - $300?
That's way too steep. For a third party piece of plastic, this really needs to not exceed $100-$150 or it's gonna fall incredibly short of where it should've been. They can easily revive the virtual guitar era
That kinda price was reasonably back then but now it’s cheaper to make this stuff so 100$ is fair

Play clone hero
Where ? Are the new games to use this on PlayStation 5 .
Now just give us Rock Band 5.
Play fn festival it's FREE
@@justincase4152or buy rock band 4. Already has a massive library
New guitar hero would be cooler
Fortnite Festival is unfortunately the Rock Band 5
@@DeMelly__ Really
What games can you play on ps5 though?
Ill be getting this but if they do a Sunburst version it will def be a Shut Up and Take My Money moment...
Ready for pre orders!!
How’s it gonna work on the only game worth playing? Tekken 8?
Are they going to make a drum set?
When are the drums?
Any updates on this? Seems like it’s gone quiet. Maybe waiting for official Fortnite support to rollout?
Where can you buy it now huh?
Pre ordered mine
I’m so happy
Does it work with ps5?
is there a price yet?
I've only played Clone Hero with a wired guitar, anyone know if wireless guitars have any impact on latency?
🤦
Will this work with guitar hero on ps3? There was no official mention of that
No
So, if this guitar comes out on Xbox, then does it work on PC?
Yeah
If anyone is wondering the playstation version will work with pc
Guitar hero??
I’m gonna see if it works on gh3. Wish me luck.
The rock band controllers weren’t too bad for the strum bar clicky sound. It was the Guitar Hero guitars that were really loud and bad for that

When!?!? Take my money!
Guitar hero is coming...
Will it work for guitar hero and the old rock band
Nah just the ps4/ps5 and xboxOne/series X/S versions of Rock Band 4
The real questions is if the buttons are mechanical.
no because this is literally just a basic Rock Band guitar with the horrible frets and strum bar
@@frtpierubut it is a new rock band guitar that's accessible to people because it's actually being made
Neighbours better strap up cuz I’m not giving them no options I’m rocking in
Nice work buuuuuuuuuuuut everyone has been trying to get a hold of the drums also. Hopefully someone makes some drum kits or we can hope for rock band 5 🤘🤘
Will this work with pc??
Guitar Hero needs to comeback…
THIS IS ITTTTTT!!!!

damn lowkey kinda sad it doesn’t have a clicky strum thing that was the best part of guitar hero for me

Thats awesome, we really need a new guitar hero game
why bother with a dongle when bluetooth has improved so much?
If this doesn’t retail at 100$ I’m fine with it, anything more is crazy
