News > Guitar Hero to feature Jimi Hendrix
Published: 23/07/2008 | Categories: 'Video Games'
Activision's upcoming Guitar Hero video game will feature music icon Jimi Hendrix.
Guitar Hero World Tour will see the late guitarist and singer appear as a playable character while two of his tracks Purple Haze and The Wind Cries Mary will also feature in the game.
Due to be released for the Xbox 360, PlayStation 2 and 3 and Nintendo Wii, additional songs from the artist will be available as downloadable content for the game.
"Guitar Hero games have become the virtual rock stage for the industry's most beloved artists and Guitar Hero World Tour continues that tradition by honouring the great Jimi Hendrix and celebrating some of his greatest work," said Tim Riley, vice-president of music affairs for Activision Blizzard.
Metallica recently announced that gamers will be able to download and play every track from their upcoming album Death Magnetic on Guitar Hero III: Legends of Rock and Guitar Hero World Tour when it hits retailers this autumn.
