Rooster Teeth's RTX, a gaming culture event that drew 60,000 to Austin in July, is turning the ticket release for 2017's event into a concert with New Orleans psychedelic rock band Mutemath.

The band will play Emo's on Saturday, Jan. 7., the day after tickets go on sale for RTX 2017, which runs July 7-9 at Austin Convention Center. RTX is putting on the Emo's concert with C3 Presents and it's likely to feature other acts, including a yet-to-be-announced opener. Front Gate Tickets will put tickets for the Mutemath show on sale 10 a.m. on Friday for $22 with a pre-sale beginning Tuesday.

The 2016 RTX included game tournaments, screenings of Rooster Teeth shows and panels including a chat with Oculus VR founder Palmer Luckey.

Updated at 11:03 a.m. to correct: tickets for RTX 2017 will go on sale Jan. 6, not Jan. 7 as previously reported.
