Harmonix jumps on the next-gen bandwagon

Rock Band developer Harmonix is the latest studio to be openly working next-gen consoles, according to a job listing.

As unearthed by superannuation, the US company is looking for developers to work on a new ‘music-based motion gaming IP’.

The title will also feature environments that "encourage and reward player exploration", as well as combat encounters.

The studio is currently known to be developing Rock Band Blitz for PSN and XBLA, as well as two untitled games for Nintendo 3DS and Vita.
