Rocksmith+ announces partnership with Warner Music Group (Linkin Park, The Cure)
Rocksmith+ owners will soon learn to play songs from some Warner Music Group acts.
Starting today, the music learning service will add music from acts such as Linkin Park, Sepultura, The Cure, and Twisted Sister.
Jay Cohen, Vice President of Executive Publishing at Ubisoft said this about the new partnership:
“Rocksmith+ has always been about empowering people to learn guitar with their favorite songs. For beginners, guitar players, and music fans this is a great step forward. The large library of songs for learners and players to pick up and play on Rocksmith+ continues to expand every month. This new partnership with Warner Music Group will help bring both new and established artists to a new and growing audience. We appreciate the progressive approach of our colleagues at WMG, and we look forward to everything we will do together to deliver on the promise of a new music distribution model for all those who make music and the people who love to jam along to it.”
Jillian Rothman, VP of New Business & Ventures also said:
“Ubisoft has developed some of the most groundbreaking, interactive music experiences, and the Rocksmith series is one of the best. We are so excited to be working with them on Rocksmith's next iteration, Rocksmith+, to provide true music fans with the opportunity to explore and learn music in innovative ways. This partnership is a great addition to our efforts in gaming and reinforces our goal to provide artists with the tools to build new revenue streams, while enabling fans to connect with the music and artists they love.”
Rocksmith+ is available on PC exclusively in the Ubisoft Store and on mobile phones. New users can try the music-learning service for free for seven days when they sign up for a 12-month subscription here. The service features over 7,000 songs to learn.
