Reunite the Band in Rockbeasts: A Management RPG Debuting on Xbox

Prepare yourself to dive into the upcoming release that’s sure to be on every gamer’s radar for 2025: Rockbeasts, a narrative-driven RPG that lets you manage a band amidst the backdrop of MTV, legendary rock anthems, and the era of unforgettable hairstyles.

This unique game ropes in the legendary Iggy Pop and features a story crafted by Jakub Szamałek, who’s renowned for his work on The Witcher 3 and Cyberpunk 2077. You’re about to embark on a journey filled with both comedic and poignant moments, capturing the dramatic trajectory of a budding band in the ’90s.

In Rockbeasts, you step into the role of a band manager tasked with steering one of that era’s most talked-about groups. Your mission? Guide these aspiring musicians through the turbulent waters of fame. Alongside your talented troupe, you’ll encounter a vibrant array of anthropomorphic critters, some of whom might remind you of real-world rock icons.

It’s all about picking the right venue, refining the setlist, and ensuring everything runs smoothly. Sure, the initial gig is in a dingy basement, but didn’t all great rock legends start somewhere modest?

Each character you meet on this journey has their own backstory, challenges, and motivations. It’s up to you to decide whether to lift those around you or use them as a rung on the ladder to your own success.

With Iggy Pop lending his legendary rock-star flair, you’ll get a taste of ’90s rock scenery like never before. In Rockbeasts, Iggy channels “Iggy Pup,” a fictional version of himself. He brings the story to life as a radio DJ narrating the band’s climb up the ladder of fame.

The narrative is dynamic, filled with twists and choices that will put you to the test. Your decisions will ultimately determine if the band thrives or falls apart. You’re responsible for planning practice sessions, crafting their public image, and overall band management—and it’s up to you to uncover their hidden potential. Or, should you choose, exploit their dreams for your own gain.

For fans of the unforgettable era of rock & roll, make sure to add Rockbeasts to your wishlist on the Xbox Store today.
