Game Informer landed a first look at the game recently, and the forumites at Score Hero were quick to post the details found in the GI article. Here’s what’s reportedly been confirmed so far:
- Expert Plus – New Drum difficulty. It’s a special difficulty for people with a splitter and two kick pedals. Not compatible with World Tour online Leaderboards.
- DVD Style Content – Photos, set lists, fan club videos, rare live and behind the scenes footage
- New tones – GHTunes is in the game and it offers up exclusive tones from James Hetfield’s ESP Truckster guitar and Slayer’s Tom Araya’s ESP Bass.
- Drum Fill Mode – New cheat that lets you play freestyle drums on songs using Metallica drum sounds.
- Metallifacts – Watch performances of each track overlaid with Pop-Up Video style windows that points out trivia.
