We've been waiting donkeys for a brand-new Guitar Hero game on Xbox, but it looks like Activision won't be the one delivering the goods. Instead, RedOctane Games is bringing its own rhythm game, 'Stage Tour' to Xbox on December 10, 2026 - and the best bit? It comes with a full set of controllers!
During Gamescom Opening Night Live, we got a brand-new trailer for Stage Tour, built by veteran rhythm game developers aiming to honour "everything fans loved about the golden age of music games".
Their take on the rhythm gameplay popularised by Guitar Hero features a massive tracklist of over 90 songs, a cast of 50 bandmates, and fresh game modes for fans of the medium.
"Delivering one of the biggest and most varied launch setlists in the history of the genre, Stage Tour features over 90 songs spanning six decades of music from some of the greatest classic and modern artists of all time, including The Rolling Stones, Metallica, Radiohead, The Cure, Red Hot Chili Peppers, Mötley Crüe, Paramore and Olivia Rodrigo, to name but a few."
What makes Stage Tour so exciting, though, is it will ship with a full set of hardware, ranging from a Kramer guitar controller, Drum Kit, and wired/wireless microphones! Stage Tour is also releasing a collection of licensed Gibson guitar controllers too. If you're looking to pick one of them up, here's a detailed price breakdown of each piece of kit:
Stage Tour is coming to Xbox Series X|S December 10, 2026 and you can wishlist it now on the Xbox Store. We'll leave you with some gameplay images to get you excited.
