An enormous update from an even more enormous band: prepare yourself for more Queen.
This week, Harmonix delivers a huge bundle of Queen DLC to its loyal fans. Five songs that have never been in Rock Band before make an appearance, as well as eight previously-released tunes that have been upgraded with harmonies, keyboards, and pro guitar/pro bass tracks. The songs come in two different packs: the “Queen Extravaganza Pack 01″ can be bought for 1,100 Nintendo Points, while the “Queen RB3 Enhanced Pack” costs 1,000 Nintendo Points. All songs can be bought individually for 200 Nintendo Points.
