Author: Rees | Date: June 1, 2009

MTV / Harmoix Beatles Game Announced

At Microsoft’s pre-E3 press conference, not only did they get Yoko Ono, Dhani Harrison (son of the late, great George), Paul McCartney, and Ringo Starr up on stage, they also showed off some of the songs we can expect to see in The Beatles: Rock Band.

Here we go:

  • Day Tripper
  • I Feel Fine
  • Taxman
  • I Am The Walrus
  • Back In The USSR
  • Octopus’s Garden
  • Here Comes The Sun
  • Get Back
  • All You Need Is Love

Microsoft have also confirmed that All You Need Is Love will be exclusive to Xbox Live, with all proceeds going to the charity Doctors Without Borders. They’ve also confirmed that the game will include full Beatles albums as DLC with Abbey Road being confirmed as the first.

Read the official press release after the break.
