The June issue of Game Informer has an exclusive cover story on the fourth major entry in Activision’s top-selling Guitar Hero franchise.
Guitar Hero IV will follow closely in the footsteps of Rock Band, offering new instruments including a bass, microphone, and six-piece drumset that includes two cymbals. It is unknown whether or not the Guitar Hero IV instruments and Rock Band instruments will be cross-compatible.
Due to the recent falling-out between Gibson and Activision, Guitar Hero IV’s guitars will not be licensed and instead will be custom-designed by the developer. They will incorporate a currently unrevealed feature that will “directly impact the way you play Guitar Hero in the future.”
Rock stars can step into the studio to create their own songs and share them with other players online courtesy of the newly minted Guitar Hero Tunes service, but these tracks will be devoid of vocals.
Players will even be able to design their own musicians, album art, and instruments on-screen from scratch.
While no song titles were yet confirmed, Van Halen, The Eagles, Sublime, and Linkin Park will all be making appearances on the tracklist. All songs in the game will be master tracks.
The game is in development at Red Octane and Neversoft and will be arriving on the Xbox 360, PlayStation 3, and Wii by year’s end. Look for more details and the first media in the coming weeks.
Activision has two other upcoming Guitar Hero franchise titles, including the ‘On Tour’ mobile version and the Aerosmith edition.

Oh wow, this sounds completely AMAZING! Now I don't have to buy Rock Band, because this will be a lot better. I can't wait to make my own songs. And I'll bet that the new feature for the guitars will be a pedal, which would be awesome. could be pretty expensive, though.

It will be on the wii, don't worry about it. Guitar Hero 3 sold the best on the wii, so they'd be stupid if they didn't. And the Wii and PS2 versions of GH3 were, I believe, developed by two different companies, Vicarious Visions (Wii) and Budcat (PS2), So since it sold the best on the wii and will most likely be made by Vicarious Visions again, it shouldn't lack any features that will be on the other two consoles, and wont be a PS2 port.

If we can get some Godsmack in there, I'll be a happy man. And how badass would it be to have "Voodoo Child" by Jimi Hendrix? That could easily be a final song or close to it.
If the Rock Band and Guitar Hero instruments are compatible, I might end up getting Rock Band as well. If they aren't compatible, I'll just wait for Guitar Hero IV.
