Rock Band 2 dated for PS3, PS2 and Wii in Europe

27 February 2009 10:09 GMT / By Verity Burns

Harmonix has announced that Rock Band 2 will eventually see a European release for PlayStation 3, PlayStation 2 and Wii in the next few months.

While these consoles have had this privilege for some time in America, the game has been an Xbox-exclusive this side of the pond since its release in November.

PlayStation gamers of the new or old school variety can expect it released on 23 March, while Wii owners will have to hold out until 20 April to get their hands on the Nintendo version.

The PS3 game will have the same £49.99 price point as the 360 version, with the Wii version coming in at £39.99 and PS2, the cheapest, at £29.99.

Harmonix has also announced new prices for the Rock Band peripherals, with stand alone guitars and drums priced at £39.99 and £49.99 respectively.

An "Instrument Edition" including drums, guitar and microphone will also retail for £89.99 separately, while this will also be available in a bundle with the game. Expect to pay £119.99 for either the PS3 or 360 bundle, and £109.99 for the PS2 and Wii.
