It has been rumored for months now, but Apple Corps LTD., MTV and Harmonix finally announced the long awaited “The Beatles: Rock Band” game earlier today. This is the first time ever that Paul McCartney, Ringo Starr, Yoko Ono and Olivia Harrison have given their blessings for a Beatles based videogame. Although not much is known at the moment, a few details are emerging.

The game will take players on a journey from the Beatles’ beginning through their astronomical rise to superstardom. A song list isn’t available yet, but with a catalog the size of the Fab Four’s, there will certainly be no shortage of songs to choose from. Giles Martin, son of Sir George Martin, the Beatles long-time producer, will serve as the music producer on the game.

As for the the instrument kit, will it include a replica of McCartney’s Hofner Bass? Lennon’s Rickenbacker? Will the drum kit have the Beatles logo printed on the front? Nobody knows just yet, but we’re eager to find out!
