The music of Jimi Hendrix is coming to BandFuse: Rock Legends, the video game where legendary rockers transform players into real world guitarists, bassists and vocalists.
15 signature songs from the Hendrix catalogue will be rolled out starting in January 2014 as downloadable content in the BandFuse: Rock Legends Music Store.
Later in 2014, Hendrix will be integrated into the game as a rock legend, which will include interviews with present day guitar greats talking about Jimi's technique and experimental style paired with archival video footage from his illustrious career.
"Jimi was never afraid to go beyond the limitations of traditional guitar teachings, and when fans jump into BandFuse they will be amazed at how cool it is to learn to play guitar like Hendrix," said Janie Hendrix, President/CEO of Experience Hendrix L.L.C. "The game provides players with the ability to play his exact sound, capturing the fuzz, feedback and tones that made his style legendary."
Last week, BandFuse: Rock Legends was announced as the sponsor for the eighth edition of the celebrated Experience Hendrix Tour set to launch in March 2014.
The eighth edition of the trek begins in Dallas at the Verizon Theater on March 11 and will wrap up in Detroit on April 3.
