Rock band simulator Rising Star 2 set for an August 12 release

Weeks after being featured on our Steam Game Festival piece, Rising Star 2 finally has a release date.
Announced yesterday, Rising Star 2 will make its way to Steam on August 12. The game allows you to live out the rock and roll lifestyle from the comfort of your home. After finding some local musicians, you’ll have to practice, attend local gigs, and spend time in the studio to perfect your craft. When you’re ready, it’s time to hit the road by performing in numerous venues across the United States.
You can check out a game trailer below. Follow Rising Star 2 on Steam for more updates.
