Guitar Hero Looks to Book Metallica Next

With “Guitar Hero: Aerosmith” weeks away from release, the much-rumored Metallica version of the game appears imminent. An analyst at Wedbush Morgan Securities found reference to the upcoming, but still-unannounced game in a recent SEC filing by Activision, publisher of the Guitar Hero franchise.

There’s been no official announcement from Activision, and the timing of its release remains unknown. However, speculation suggests that it will come out after the release of “Guitar Hero: On Tour,” otherwise known as “Guitar Hero 4”– which like rival “Rock Band” will feature a full complement of instruments beyond the guitar.
