Beatles Rock Band Bundle Details

April 14th, 2009 Michael Pica

Kotaku has details on the upcoming Limited Edition Premium Beatles RockBand Bundle.

Dubbed the Limited Edition Premium Bundle, it includes The Beatles: Rock Band game; a Höfner Bass controller, Beatlesque and Ludwig-branded Rock Band drums with classic pearl finish, a metal kick pedal and a vintage replica drumhead; plus a microphone with stand and, according to an email from retailer GameStop, “additional special content.”

We’re hoping that “additional special content” means “mop-top wigs”.

The Beatles: Rock Band is available September 9 for the PS3, Xbox 360 and the Nintendo Wii and priced at US$250.
