Watch Queen play Rock Band at Wembley Stadium


Last week, two new Queen packs were made available for Rock Band - featuring keys, harmonies, and Pro Upgrades available, plus upgrades to Queen songs already available for Rock Band. Queen has been featured in LEGO Rock Band, DLC for Rock Band 2, and with their quintessential rock anthem "Bohemian Rhapsody" on the Rock Band 3 disc.

As of December 7, fans are now able to download five new Queen songs for Rock Band 3, as well as upgrades to previously released Queen songs.

As always, songs available as downloadable content for Rock Band 3 feature five-button guitar and bass parts, drums, Pro Drums, and keys, Pro Keys and harmonies, where applicable. Some songs also feature Pro Guitar and Pro Bass upgrades available for an additional $0.99 upgrade download.

Queen – Bohemian Rhapsody
Rock Band 3 – Expert Guitar


(Ed. note: Not sure if the graphics are in honor of "Movember," but the singer looks more like Wolfgang Van Halen than Freddie Mercury. HA!)
