RedOctane relaunches and will continue to make new rhythm games
RedOctane Games, the studio behind the popular Guitar Hero franchise, has relaunched and announced that it is already in production on its first new rhythm game. The company was originally founded in 1999 by Charles and Kai Huang, and it was later acquired by Activision in 2006 before being shuttered in 2010. The new RedOctane will operate within the Embracer Freemode parent company and will be led by Simon Ebejer, who served as the production director for multiple Guitar Hero games. Many of the employees at the new RedOctane have experience working on Guitar Hero and DJ Hero. While there are some interesting competitors in the rhythm game market, such as Clone Hero and Fortnite Festival, it will be exciting to see what new ideas RedOctane brings to the genre.
