Guitar Hero Live demonstration at the 2015 Gamescom. The game features a new guitar controller with 6 buttons arranged across three frets.
Guitar Hero Live is a 2015 music video game developed by FreeStyleGames and published by Activision. It is the first title in the Guitar Hero series since it went into a hiatus after 2011, and the first game in the series available for 8th generation video game consoles (PlayStation 4, Wii U, and Xbox One). The game was released worldwide on 20 October 2015 for these systems as well as the PlayStation 3, Xbox 360, and iOS devices including the Apple TV.
The title is considered a reboot of the series; instead of using a five-button guitar-shaped game controller, the game shipped with a six-button controller, arranged in two rows of three aimed to provide more realistic fingering positions than the five-button controller. The game includes 42 songs on disc, presented in sets using full motion video taken from the first-person perspective of the lead guitarist as the background visuals to create an immersive experience. Guitar Hero Live does not use traditional downloadable content to expand the game, and is not backwards compatible with previous songs from Guitar Hero games. Instead, the game includes "Guitar Hero TV" (GHTV), an always-on music video-style channel that players can jump in or out of at any time, playing songs currently presented on the channel in a curated fashion. GHTV, through in-game rewards and microtransactions, supports the ability to play any song in the library, perform Premium shows where the newest tracks to GHTV will be found, or even unlock all features for a 24-hour period as part of a Party Pass. Two hundred songs were available at the release of the game, with more added over time.
On-disc soundtrack
Forty-two songs are featured on disc as "GH Live" songs. In game, the songs are arranged into sets of 3 to 5 songs to be played as part of a concert performance. During these songs, the game shows an on-screen fretboard which represents the notes the player should play, shown atop live-action footage taken from first-person perspective of the lead guitar player of one of several fictional bands, performing on stage and watching the reaction of the crowd and their bandmates. Once the player has completed a set, all songs from that set are available in quickplay mode.[1] The player then unlocks the ability to play the individual songs outside of sets.[2]
In selecting the on-disc songs, FreeStyleGames recognized that challenging guitar tracks are not strictly limited to rock music, and included other genres into the mix.[3] According to designer Jim Norris, their selection process included identifying songs that would be expected by players to be on a Guitar Hero title, determining of those songs which they could license, marking-up the song for the note highways and determining how much fun those songs would be to play, and then balancing the song selection in the game to give players a combination of songs they know and those they may not recognize but would be fun to play.[4]
The table below lists the on-disc songs, including the venue and fictional band that are used in the set where the song is included.[5]

GHTV
See also: GHTV mode in Guitar Hero Live
Forgoing the downloadable content model used in previous Guitar Hero games, Guitar Hero Live adds songs to the game via Guitar Hero TV (GHTV), free of charge. Instead of playing the immersive first-person view that the main Live mode presents, songs on GHTV are played over the music video or a video from a live concert footage of the band playing. Songs on GHTV are normally offered in a curated rotation, similar to a music video channel, allowing the player to drop in and out, but the player can use collected in-game rewards or use microtransactions to play any available song outside of this rotation.[6][7][8][9][8] FreeStyleGames found that this approach, in contrast to the traditional downloadable content model, made it easier to secure licensing rights with artists to use their songs,[10] as well as bringing back the music video format popularized in the 1980s and 1990s.[11]

Added songs
New songs have been added to GHTV on a regular weekly basis. While some songs are directly added to the on-demand and curated lineup, several other songs are introduced to GHTV through Premium Shows. A player can access a Premium Show either through playing specific songs or through microtransactions. Completing Premium Shows can earn the player in-game rewards such as a decorative item for their player card or on-screen fretboard. The week after their introduction, these songs are added to the on-demand playlist, and after another week enter into the GHTV's rotation of songs.[12][13][14] Activision announced that at least 70 new songs will be added to GHTV before the end of 2015.[6] In some cases, as with the Avenged Sevenfold or Rival Sons Premium Shows, these are based on songs and footage taken live from the respective band's current tour.[15]

Reception
See also: Reception of Guitar Hero Live
Reviewers considered the on-disc soundtrack for Guitar Hero Live weak. Griffin McElroy of Polygon found it the "biggest disappointment" of the game given the setlist had mostly songs from 2000 or later, forgoing classic rock songs.[17] GameSpot's Scott Buttersworth stated that many of the on-disc selections are pop songs that "just aren't cut out for Guitar Hero gameplay", as they feature the same repeating guitar riff over and over.[18] Ben Griffin of GamesRadar was more favorable of the on-disc set list, finding that the tracks represented "the music landscape as it is rather than as it was".[19] Chris Carter of Destructoid also appreciated the soundtrack, calling it a "good spread" of songs that can appeal to everyone.[20]
The GHTV mode earned mixed opinions, with most reviewers praising the concept. The presentation of the channels was highlighted as hearkening to the heyday of MTV, and praised for providing players with the ability to explore new music. The selection of songs for GHTV was considered very diverse, and some reviewers found the GHTV songlist to be better varied than the on-disc list, providing songs from "six-string classic" bands that work well for games like Guitar Hero.[18][21][22] Still, criticism was raised on the use of microtransactions and premium shows, disallowing players to play specific tracks at any time without cost.[17][19][18][20]
