Rock Band VR trailer reveals March release

Did you think Guitar Hero Live was immersive? This might top that.

When Harmonix and Oculus announced Rock Band VR during The Game Awards 2015, they hoped to release the game some time in 2016. Time went by without noteworthy updates, and near the end of the year we got the expected delay to early 2017. Now we finally have a specific release date, which hopefully means no more delays.

Today's trailer reveals that the game will launch on Oculus Rift on March 23. Are you interested in testing your guitar skills in virtual reality, or are you expecting an extra layer of difficulty in the virtual world?
