Soundtrack
All of the songs in the game will be master recordings, a first for the series. Neversoft claims that on disk than any other Guitar Hero game. IGN reports that the game will feature over 85 songs. While there will be a renewed commitment to downloadable content, existing downloadable songs for Guitar Hero III will not be playable in World Tour, according to IGN. Downloadable content will be available through the in-game store and will include full album downloads and more regular releases compared to Guitar Hero III. Project director Brian Blight claims that they have "a pretty even split between the '80s, '90s, and classic rock" with a "good amount of emerging bands".
