Studio is now working on developing Rock Band 3, MTV Games confirms

Harmonix hints at Natal Rock Band

Massachusetts-based developer Harmonix is considering using Microsoft’s Natal technology in its next project, Rock Band 3.

“The Harmonix development team are working on what is effectively the next game, or Rock Band 3,” MTV Games boss Scott Guthrie, speaking in an exclusive interview with MCV.

Whether Rock Band 3 is being designed with Natal capabilities remains to be seen. However, Guthrie implied that the studio “wasn’t standing still” when it came to emerging technologies.

“We will keep moving into new areas and look at new technologies that our platform holder partners are also developing, such as Project Natal from Microsoft,” he said.

“We’re working with them to pull some things together. So it’s pretty exciting time for the future of our music game business.”
