European headbangers will get their chance to rock this April when Guitar Hero heads their way. RedOctane, the guitar game’s publisher, has announced that the title will be hitting shelves in the region in two months time; it’ll retail for £50 and will come with a guitar peripheral shaped like a Gibson SG.

Already available in North America, Guitar Hero has players strumming along to 30 licensed rock songs. It features a single-player mode that has the player rise from obscurity to a rock star; multiplayer modes are also present, offering head-to-head fun.
