Four years of Rocksmith+ and fifteen years of Rocksmith. Two anniversaries, one free weekend: 12 iconic tracks, from Seven Nation Army to Boulevard of Broken Dreams and Clocks, are free to play from September 4 at 7AM PST to September 7 at 7AM PST, on PC, PS5, PS4, iOS, and Android, with no subscription needed.
From day one the idea has been simple: learning an instrument should not be reserved for a lucky few. Anyone should be able to pick up a guitar, play the songs they already love, and feel that moment where it finally clicks.
That is why Rocksmith+ teaches real music on a real instrument, note for note the way it was recorded, and wraps it in something that feels like a game. Faithful to the music, fun to come back to, because practice sticks a lot better when you are enjoying yourself. Fifteen years later that is still the whole point, and it feels right to celebrate it by opening the door a little wider.
So we are opening up 12 iconic tracks from the song library to everyone for one weekend: no subscription needed to play them. Rock, pop, and soul classics to learn on guitar, bass, and piano.
