Harmonix Talks Rock Band VR

Rock Band VR experience could be "even more incredible and immersive."

Harmonix CEO Steve Janiak revealed that the company is always looking to work with exciting new technologies, and virtual reality is no different.

"Harmonix prides itself on being at the forefront of new technologies," he said. "VR is an intriguing frontier, and a great opportunity to fundamentally reinvent how people connect to music."

However he didn't announce any specific plans to add VR support to this year's Rock Band 4, he didn't rule it out, either. Janik also teased that VR can be much better to capture the feeling of performing in a band.

"For Rock Band, the feeling of playing live music, of really being on stage with the lights and the crowd and the sound enveloping you, that's the experience we're trying to deliver with Rock Band 4," he said. "It could be even more incredible and immersive in the context of VR, and we're excited about the possibilities."

Rock Band 4 launches later this year for Xbox One and PlayStation 4.
