Activision is launching a new Guitar Hero game, but it won’t be on consoles or PCs. Instead, the company will bring its iconic music game to mobile devices, marking a significant shift in strategy.
The announcement came after an accidental leak from Activision’s Instagram account, where an advertisement using AI was mistakenly shared. The post sparked criticism about the use of AI in gaming, particularly among rival company Microsoft, which has invested heavily in AI technology.
This isn’t the first time Activision has used AI in its games, as recently confirmed for Call of Duty on PC. However, the move to mobile is notable, especially with Microsoft’s own AI-powered games and franchises being optimized for multiple platforms.
While some speculate that this could be a one-off release or part of a larger comeback plan for Guitar Hero, others wonder if it’s simply Activision’s attempt to revive the series.
