What's New & Improved in Rocksmith 2014 Edition

Find out about all the massive improvements, new modes and features, and so much more, in this new video intended for players who already own the original Rocksmith.

Pre-order the "No Cable Included" Version for Rocksmith Owners to save $20 (because you already own the cable) and also get free bonus track "Cherub Rock" by The Smashing Pumpkins.

What you said is VERY true. I started the guitar with Rocksmith, absolutely NO experience before that, 2 monts later I was doing much better than I expected. This "game" is just truly amazing.

This game blew me away. The fact that I can do other stuff with my guitar rather than play the tab my guitar teacher gives me. The Guitarcade is genius, the song selection is very diverse, and most importantly, it picks up notes really well. I didn't expect much from this game, but it's hell of a lot more satisfying learning the guitar rather than getting a killstreak in Call of Duty.

i was really won over when he said"rocksmith 2014 kick the SHIT out of rocksmith 1" idk why

It should have a guitar tabulator mode too in addition to highway mode. fast licks with lots of notes are impossible to see in highway mode.

[MichaelDoesLife]

Wow. It looks the the entire Rocksmith team busted their asses off to ensure that this game is miles ahead of its predecessor. The new improvements and additions are unbelievable. I simply can't wait to get rockin' come this October.

the cable is included in the set, although You may buy game without cable if You've got one form first edition. effects and amps are in game and they are automatically loaded for the song, and if You manage to gain enough points, it's unlocked for free play. other thing You can unlock are hidden songs.

Anyone considering buying this "game" do it. I don't think of this as a game. Ive had this for two months and the level of improvement is unreal. I would never have played guitar looking at a book or dvd for 4 hours a day. Its really one of the best things Ive ever bought. Everyone at rocksmith thanks so much! 

[mcedwar]

Wow. I already pre-ordered it for the new songs, jam session mode, cool practice device, but improving the UI, menus, and no load times? Yes! Pretty excited!

[MrCaptainInternet]

Thanks mate, I'm so picking up a guitar and rocksmith 2014 :D Pretty excited after seeing the videos lol

[maryem]

this seems to be a great learning tool, i have read a few reviews now and almost all, like 99% of the feedback is nothing but great things being said about this software, i can't wait to get my hands on a copy of this and give it a go

[amphobius]

I was originally excited for this for the fact it has War Ensemble by Slayer.

Now I'm excited that it's a solid game and moreover an extremely solid learning tool. I'll definitely be picking this up.

[ziuber]

This is going to be my game of the year. Definitely most anticipated one.

[daveyoung]

Rocksmith 2014 looks amazing! I hope there is a setting to turn notes on so I can learn the fretboard and not just see colored bars.

[toymachinesh]

They will but they are still working out licensing on a few songs. There was a joystiq article on it.

[forestR]

Holy shit, no more loading? THANKYOU!!!
backwards compatible with DLC and cable? THANKYOU!!!
Everything about this is good.

[rayhl]

in previous music games there was a utility to install the songs from other version to harddrive. Since the format is slightly different you would have to download the Rocksmith 1 songs after proving you own the game

[asylumxtc]

Looks amazing! I have Rocksmith and a bunch of DLC on the PS3 now, but I'd love to try 2014 on the XBox with Kinect. Any way to move my DLC over?

[TheKarmasonicOne]

Can't wait to get this. If you want RS1 catalog, will there be a huge charge?

[scaupp]

I was seriously hoping for optional tab versus the flying notes, looks like I don't get that. This is still gonna be a massive improvement and a day one purchase for sure.

[notanoperafloozy]

Gosh... You guys keep making me more and more impatient for this to be released.

My favourite part was "Rocksmith 2014 kicks the sh[bleeeep] out of Rocksmith 1". Bahaha! Keepin' it classy. :)
