Instead you follow patterns and icons as they scroll down screen before hitting the six strings on the bottom of the screen. The interface is decent too, ensuring that you don’t need to be able to read sheet music or tablature. There’s even the option to play Session mode alongside a friend in multiplayer. While this mode may be appealing to experienced players, even a beginner who can strum a few chords can get a feeling of what it might be like to play in a real band. Here, you can choose up to four instruments to jam along with, choosing the tempo, scale and tunings of other guitars, drums, or keyboards that will play along with you in synch. Guitarcade mode offers a more light-hearted guitar experience, with mini-games where you’ll have to shoot the likes of spaceships by hitting certain notes with perfect timing, but it’s still all about teaching you technique and honing your skills so you can play the songs and eventually get the most out of the brilliant Session Mode. Indeed, everything you do in Rocksmith is designed to improve your guitar playing skills. You may, for example, be encouraged to repeat a riff over and over again at a slower pace or told to re-check a certain chord, or go and play an arcade-style mini-game to improve your dexterity and speed. Note detection is spot-on and one step at a time you get better and better. One of the highlights is ‘Learn A Song’ mode, which slowly introduces you to each song, making you play single notes before dynamically adjusting the difficulty based on the way you play.

The set-list stands at around 50 tracks from the likes of major artists like The Police, The Kinks, The Who, Queen and Kiss, but there’s also the option to buy 300 more additional tracks from the Store, and players with the PS3 version can transfer their existing DLC. Whether you’re impressed with the set-list or not is really going to depend on your taste in music and bands. Indeed, one of the greatest features of Rocksmith 2014 is the feedback system it recognizes where you’re going wrong and purposely sets challenges to fix it, or points you in the right direction.Ĭontinued to play a song competently is one of the joys of playing the guitar and in Rocksmith beginners will soon be strumming along to the likes of “Knocking on Heaven’s Door,” while experienced guitar players may get more out of perfecting lightning fast solos from the likes of heavy metal band Mastadon. Get it wrong and Rocksmith talks you through where you need to improve. After each video, you then get the chance to practice the technique and pass a test as a pre-requisite in order to move onto a more complicated version of the technique. Through video tutorials you are taken through many different guitar techniques such as picking, string bending and palm muting. Rocksmith offers a wide range of game modes and a superb set of tutorials that teach you every aspect of playing a guitar.
You then get to pick whether you’d like to play Lead, Rhythm or Bass guitar, meaning you could, if you’ve got the patience and motivation, become a master of all three styles. That means, you’ll need to go and buy an optical cable and a receiver of set of headphones that have an optical input, although there’s other options available too, such as using a HDMI audio convertor.ĭuring the set-up process you get to choose a skill level from ‘beginner’ to ‘very experienced’ which determines how far the various modes will push you.

The PS4 does NOT have analog inputs but instead uses optical audio outputs.
In the PS3 version of Rocksmith, Ubisoft recommened using analog audio inputs of the console to ensure there’s no lag. Using HDMI, there is a slight delay between the moment you strum or play a string and when it’s detected in game, so first up (if you really want to get the most out of Rocksmith) you really do need to set-up audio properly. The game begins when you plug your electric guitar into the PS4 via a Real Tone USB cable (existing PS3 ones also work).

Sadly, there’s no digital upgrade offer, so deciding whether to take the leap from PS3 to PS4 will really depend on whether you have any interest in this handful of new features. Finally, you can stream and capture video, which you couldn’t do in the PS3 version.
Remote Play via PlayStation Vita is available, though it’s a feature I can’t see many using as there’s no real point playing Rocksmith unless you’re being scored for your efforts and the guitar is plugged into the PS4.

The PS4 edition features a 1080p visual upgrade over the PS3 version, though this really doesn’t make much difference at all in terms of improving the learning process or making the game any better than its predecessor.
