Harmonix and peripheral creator Mad Catz have extended their partnership, and Mad Catz will co-publish Rock Band 4, which is out this year for the PS4 and Xbox One.

Mad Catz will take care of sales, promotion, and distribution of Rock Band 4 and its bundles. Harmonix will handle the game's content and digital sales.

The peripheral manufacturer will also create the controllers for the game.

Our Take

Mad Catz did the Rock Band 3 controllers, so it's good that Rock Band 4 continues the build-quality they've gotten used to. More importantly, it leaves the developer to concentrate on what it does best.
