RedOctane Games, the rhythm game studio led by genre veterans, has announced Stage Tour, a rhthm action game “that blends familiar, accessible note-highway gameplay with exciting modern twists.” It will launch for consoles and PC via Steam this fall, with more information on supported platforms to be announced at a later date.
“Stage Tour is our love letter to rhythm gaming,” said RedOctane Games head of studio Simon Ebejer in a press release. “We want Stage Tour to feel familiar and authentic, but also fresh, utilizing modern technology to connect gamers with the music they love and enjoying a platform that evolves and grows over time. With new instruments and deep charting systems, we’re raising the bar on what we believe a rhythm game can be, while also catering to those wishing to simply enjoy a casual experience and have a good time.”
The game will also feature a partnership with Gibson, bringing the Gibson, Epiphone, and Kramer brands directly into the game.
Gibson lifestyle and licensing senior manager Taylor Berryman said, “For a generation of players, rhythm games transformed music from something you listened to into something you lived—inspiring countless people to pick up real instruments and explore their creativity. Stage Tour is the next evolution of that influence. We’re thrilled to partner with RedOctane to reimagine what rhythm gaming can be and to spark deeper connection, creativity, and a lifelong love of music for generations to come.”
Here is an overview of the game, via its Steam page:
