Rock Band Product Manager Eric Pope has told MCV (as reported by Videogamer) that Rock Band 4 will “be 1080p and will run at 60 FPS”.

Pope confirmed Harmonix has “built a brand new engine for Rock Band 4 to make the most of the new hardware.”

“It’s going to look ‘next-gen’ with more realistic lighting, character models, and animation,” he added.

MCV suggests an October release date for Rock Band 4 on PS4 and Xbox One.

Steve's the owner and Editor-in-Chief of Stevivor.com, the country’s leading independent video games outlet. Steve arrived in Australia back in 2001 on what was meant to be a three-month working holiday before deciding to emigrate and, eventually, becoming a citizen.

Stevivor is a combination of ‘Steve’ and ‘Survivor’, which made more sense back in 2001 when Jeff Probst was up in Queensland. The site started as Steve’s travel blog before transitioning over into video games.

Aside from video games, Steve has interests in hockey and Star Trek, playing the former and helping to cover video games about the latter on TrekMovie.com. By day, Steve works as the communications manager of the peak body representing Victorians as they age.
