Rumor: Guitar Hero Set To Make A Comeback This Year?

After announcing the end of the series last year due to a decline in sales, it would appear that Activision may be ready to breathe new life into the game that popularized the music genre.

According to a rumor via StickSkills an inside source is claiming that Activision is set to release a new entry to the Guitar Hero franchise around the Holidays. An official announcement is reportedly scheduled to take place a few weeks before E3 2012 where gamers will get to see the first footage of the title.

Despite reports that Guitar Hero was gone for good Activision’s vice president Dan Winters clarified that Guitar Hero was just going  on” hiatus” for the year. Last July during an interview with Forbes, Kotick stated that while the publisher is “going to stop selling Guitar Hero altogether”, they are “going to go back to the studios and we’re going to use new studios and reinvent” the series.
