Warner Bros and TT Games have announced they are joining forces with the LEGO Group, Harmonix and MTV Games, to create LEGO Rock Band.

Described as a “unique family-friendly music experience” LEGO Rock Band is in development at TT Games in partnership with Harmonix, and published by Warner Bros. Interactive Entertainment.

The game hopes to allow families, tweens and teens the ability to experience the journey to rock stardom. We’re promised a range of chart-topping songs and classic favourites suitable for younger audiences, including:

Blur: “Song 2”

Carl Douglas: “Kung Fu Fighting”

Europe: “The Final Countdown”

Good Charlotte: “Boys and Girls”

Pink: “So What”

Players will become rockers as they embark on a journey to stardom that the whole family can enjoy as they work their way through local venues, stadiums and fantasy locations on Earth and beyond, that mimic the settings that the LEGO world offers. Players will also be able to create their own LEGO Rock Band style as they customise their minifigure avatars, band and entourage, including roadies, managers and crew.

LEGO Rock Band supports Rock Band instruments, as well as other music game controllers. The game will be available this year for Xbox 360, PS3 and Wii. A version for Nintendo DS will be co-developed by TT Games and Harmonix in partnership with Backbone Entertainment.
