A new trailer was released yesterday for Guitar Hero World Tour. This trailer focused on the new drum kit and had a few celebrity drummers testing out the new kit and giving their opinion.
The drummers were Stewart Copeland from the Police, Chad Smith from the Red Hot Chili Peppers, and most notably Travis Barker from Blink 182.
We say ‘most notably’ because, in the trailer, Barker can be seen wearing a motion capture suit. A motion capture suit is used in video games to capture movements for characters within in game. In the Guitar Hero series, motion capture of musicians has been limited almost exclusively to those who will be a ‘boss’.
While the video did not expressly state that Barker would be a boss in the game, Barker did mention that he was using the drums to compose. Given the mention of composition and that he was wearing a mo-cap suit, we’re going to go out on a limb and say that Guitar Hero World Tour will not only feature ‘Drum Boss Battles’, but that Travis Barker will be one of the bosses.
