Anticipation is building for one of the most intriguing game releases slated for 2025—Rockbeasts, a narrative-driven RPG that puts you squarely in the manager’s chair during the golden era of MTV, booming rock anthems, and hair styles as loud as the music.
Prepare to embark on a journey of music and mayhem with a captivating story penned by Jakub Szamałek, known for his work on The Witcher 3 and Cyberpunk 2077. Featuring the incomparable Iggy Pop, this game promises a rollercoaster ride through the dizzying highs and crushing lows that accompany a rising band’s glory path in the grunge-tinted 90s.
Step into the role of managing “one of the most controversial bands” of this time—a lively ensemble of anthropomorphic animals, inspired by the rock icons of yesteryears. As their manager, you’re tasked with guiding these vibrant characters through the unpredictable waters of the music scene, helping them chase after fame and fortune, while encountering a parade of colorful and intriguing personalities along the way.
You’ll have to choose the right venues, perfect the setlist, and ensure that everything goes according to plan. It might all start in a dingy basement, but remember, even the most legendary bands began on similar stages. Will you watch the band rise to fame under your skilled guidance, or sink under the weight of the industry’s pressures?
Every character in Rockbeasts has their own unique motivations and personal struggles. This presents you, as the manager, with a crucial decision: Will you support and guide those around you towards success, or will you exploit their dreams for your own gain?
The game draws players in with the energy of Iggy Pop, a name synonymous with punk rock, who lends his iconic voice to the character “Iggy Pup,” a fictionalized version of himself. Players get to experience his performance as the radio host narrator, chronicling the band’s meteoric rise. This blend of storytelling and music with such a legendary figure adds an authentic layer to this ’90s rock-themed adventure.
As the story unfolds, you’ll navigate through its branching narratives, facing decision after decision that will either rocket your band into the stratosphere or doom them to rock and roll tragedy. Whether you’re shaping their image, managing their rehearsals, or making the cutthroat choices that come with the territory, every decision contributes to their final destiny. Will you find the diamond in the rough among this group of misfit animals or leave their dreams shattered in your wake?
In a love letter to the era of rock, Rockbeasts challenges you to make your mark in the unforgiving music industry. Ready to crank those amps up to eleven? Hit the Xbox Store and add Rockbeasts to your wishlist now.
