PlayStation Riffmasters do not work for Fortnite Festival on PC at this time. They DO work for Clone Hero and other games, however.

that's why you order it from the name. 1: PS4/PS5 Riftmaster Wireless Guitar Controller 2: Xbox X|S, Xbox One, & PC Wireless Guitar Controller PC is only involved in Xbox and PC controllers, doesn't show in PlayStation anyways.

Oddly enough, I can't get my Xbox Riffmaster to be detected on Clone Hero, just Festival. Not sure if there is a workaround

"Clone Hero and other games" -- Does that include tilt and whammy? Because I've seen mixed comments about it. Nobody that HAS a PS Riffmaster in their hands seems interested in giving a straight answer - that is, before I saw your comment/video. I play RB4 on PS5 and also Clone Hero, and I am NOT INTERESTED in seeking out separate versions for each. I don't care a bit about Fortnite btw. Thanks! Edit: I see further down you said tilt doesn't work in CH. That's too bad but don't think it's a dealbreaker. I'm happy that it works at all.

Never thought I'd see a new official guitar being unboxed in 2024

I quit playing Guitar Hero/Rock Band type games in 2011 because I thought that they would just stop making the Guitar controllers. I might get back into it now and use it with Clone Hero. I prefer the Guitar Hero strum bars because they are more clicky.

Fortnite Festival just turned me into a Rhythm game fan. I've never once played Guitar Hero/Clone Hero/Rock Band. And the Riffmaster will be my first ever guitar that I'll own and play. I honestly can't wait for this guitar to come out!

Thanks for the review! I was already looking forward to this guitar, and now I’m really hyped! I am a GH boomer from the days of the original, but I only just recently picked up RB4 due to never having modern console hardware. Can’t wait to have this in my collection!

Thank you!

Thank you for reviewing this man. As a zoomer rhythm game player, I always wanted to get my own guitar controller but unfortunately I haven’t been able to obviously due to no new GH/RB games being made anymore. This will finally allow me to try a guitar controller for the first time and I am so stoked! I cant wait to hopefully become as good as you and the Lore Hero group one day. :)

I cant wait to get my hands on this! Thanks for the concise review

This looks really good! Excited to pick up a couple of these for my PC gaming. I believe they said the dongle should work with Windows as well, but we'll have to check...

The wait for this hardware feels like forever, even though I didn't know it existed until last week.

This was a great video! very cohesive thoughts and expectations from this controller. I'm excited to pick one up when it drops.

Thank you! You'll love this thing when it drops

The fact rhythm games are making a come back is wild to me. Its honestly thanks to people like this guy for still playing them long after they fell out of favor with the general public. Also the clone hero team. But Fortnight adding a rockband like game to their game is huge and is getting lots of people back into these games or into them for the first time.

Sending you one of these was A Wise Move on PDP's part. I hope to get the Xbox version whenever I get the chance.

The guitar looks great and I love the name of it. I can’t wait to get my hands on it because I need a backup RB Guitar just in case my Red Fender Jaguar guitar breaks. Unfortunately my blue one doesn’t turn on and want to connect to my PS4. Great review. 👏

Looks so sick and I’ll definitely pick it up when it releases BUT I REALLY prefer the GH style with protruding buttons and a clicky strum bar.

Thanks for the review. Can't wait to use this in clone, hero and traveling.

I need this guitar IN MY LIFE NOW

I’m really excited for when this comes out. I’ve been playing Clone Hero off and on for years, but I really got back into these rhythm games due to Festival. This controller looks really nice even if I’d prefer a Guitar Hero set up instead of Rock Band. Great video man!

Man I’m excited for when they finally release these, my Rock Band 2 strat is starting to show its age and a brand new guitar for RB4 would be amazing. Hopefully soon they announce a release date and price

Mine will be here tomorrow! I can’t wait!

Looking forward to this being released 😊

Hope they will be readily available over here, too. Finally a chance to get one for other platforms and make sure they all work in my game (only got PS controllers and it's impossible to find any otherwise). Not to mention the constant dread of "if my controller dies, I can't get a new one".

I’m so happy these are coming back

This is so cool, This all still feels like a dream I never woke up from

Just hearing protest the hero made my day. Imma look into getting one of these.

Glad they are making new guitar controllers. Hopefully they are successful and we see drum controllers made too. Just cracked my rockband drums recently and really would like something brand new out of box.

I've always preferred Rock Band style guitars even if that makes me a weirdo. I'll definitely buy a couple of these to support more of these being made and I'm exited to try this for myself. Not so exited about it being a piano black fingerprint magnet but hey what can you do.

I always look forward to your videos :) PS: Rock Band Country Pack 1+2 is waiting for you.

STOP

Wait a minute, i need to pinch myself. Whenever i can afford this, I'm getting one! So cool, dont think id be able play as good as you though. Great review by the way...😎

How are you activating Star Power, and how does it feel? It looks like you're trying to hit the thin select / back button with a pinky. I never learned how to palm Select (especially on the older models with a round select) so looking at this I feel like I'd revert to tilting or seeing if I could assign select to an input on the neck-mounted analog stick. While Clone Hero does allow for inputs from multiple devices (so I can use a foot pedal for SP), RPCS3, YARG and WTDE don't so there's also the option of feeding the Riffmaster and a pedal through xbox360CE, but then that'd probably add latency. If the Riffmaster has a nicer onboard method of hitting SP, that'd be lovely - is it just easier than it looks to hit those buttons?

@aWiseMoose

3 ай бұрын

I'm actually hitting left on the Dpad to activate SP. It's kinda awkward, but once my pinky got acquainted with the movement down to that button it wasn't too bad. Just had to be careful not to press up or down on the Dpad because that will cause a strum

Love that set piece in the background of the second scene of the video :D

the one thing I wish they'd done was make it a bit bulkier, that's the thing about the Warbeast controller that gave me hope for this

God, Dream Genie is like its own kind of rhythm game compared to the rest of the songs in any Guitar Hero/Rock Band game. Just tech fc'd it and can't wait to grind it on this controller. This video was very helpful. Thanks!

I’ve always wanted to play guitar hero and stuff like that but never had a console of my own that supports it. This has me so excited 😂

Activating star power with the dpad is the only thing keeping me from ordering one. I remember when the Xplorer came out and some of us glued a coin to it for easier activation/squeezing, maybe there will be a similar workaround for this one

Might need to cop one as my 360 world tour guitar is slowly dying and isn’t registering green or orange presses sometimes

Heard about your review on FB. Thanks!

I can't wait for these to start selling!

Yeah I bought a used guitar for 70 on Mercari it worked for like a week now the strum bar double strums -.- can’t wait for this one

I am excited off this, love guitar hero🔥

So glad to see a new guitar controller being made

honestly just hope the strum bar is more durable than the OG RB1 guitars cuz mine broke years ago due to strumming too hard since I strum with mainly my thumb like a bass guitar and that thing was for sure not designed with how violent my strumming can be

Seems like some early batch copies of the Riffmaster has some hardware issues according to Amazon. Hopefully by the time I get around to buying one they'll be resolved.

LUCKY. the preorders were sold out in minutes. I was at work when they went live :(

Finally i need one for Xbox for years now i want to buy RockBand 4 because all my DLC for RB 1 to 3 was on the 360 .And Rock Band 4 dongle for Xbox are impossible to find .Cant wait for this !!!

I personally preferred GH Controllers back in the five-fret guitar game hayday, but I'll certainly get one of these if the scalpers don't get to it.

ive played on a guitar hero/rock band craze again, getting this for my xbox one

I don't even have the time to play that much clone hero, but I might actually get this. I don't own any consoles and I've really never played Rock band but honestly I just want to support new guitars being made by actually reputable companies. Great video!

Does the Rifflaster's whammy bar work when you play Clone Hero? Heard some complaints about it not working in that setting.

Great video, have you tried using it with fortnite festival on pc?

Are you able to use the lower solo buttons on clone hero as well?

can this be used with all the old guitar hero games? what about Guitar flash on pc?

I... NEED... IT!! [/spongebob] Hoping it'll be available here in the UK.

I’m picking one up for sure. Now I just need Fortnite Festival to update so we can see each other’s boards

There needs to be a VR version of the guitar hero games. Imagine being stood on stage, rocking out with your best buds, it would be awesome.

Awesome now we need new drums for rock band

I REALLY REALLY REALLY hope they release worldwide

Glad you got one early!

Gretsch Pro Jet Rock Band guitar is my favorite

The fog juice in the back has a menacing aura

I'm so hyped for brand new rockband/guitar hero gear that I would've bought the riffmaster even if it was a piece of crap. Glad to hear it's actually good.

cant wait to get my hands on one after sitting here with 7 broken gh guitars

but can you hit select for overdrive with your pinky like the old rock band guitars?

wish I could use this to play guitar hero 3 on my ps3

Hopefully they're doing drums too.. harmonix needs to do new RB already

I like the guitar, but I am used to the starpower button on the world tour guitar. Maybe I can save for that controller

It looks so clean and nice

Which game can we play on ps5 with a guitar like this? Or, better yet, can we still play guitar hero 3 with controller on ps4 or 5 ?

My favourite controller is still the GH2 Xplorer for the Xbox 360

I’m sure in the official release theyll add a guitar skin in fortnight but other than that I used to play rb4 with the blue jag honestly my worst experience with a rock band guitar considering the input issues, ghost notes and random disconnects and I’ve played the Beatles Wii rockband guitar my favorite is guitar hero2 ps2 guitar it was comedically small but so responsive and snappy I’m a little disappointed this won’t give you the choice to plug in for a smaller delay but god do I love the headphone jack and the fact that there is a new guitar in 2024 now I just wish they’d add modest mouse float on to rb4

New guitar controllers ?! The universe is healing 🥹

I hope they let people customize it when it gets released

I have a katana mods but i still plan on buying to support pdp and their support of these games that i love.

I wonder if it works on PC aswell with all of it's features. I wanna use it with Guitar Hero World Tour - Definitive Edition.

is there any difference between riffmaster and Guitar hero controller as a playability and how they made?

you should start uploading FCs on easy and medium. I’m saving up for GH3 and I’m using a ruler and clicking along to easy mode gameplay to practice

so, what games can we play with this guitar? will they be releasing new games?

looks awesome, pretty sad that it costs that much but ig you pay the price of quality, hope i can get it one day because my old ps3 gh controller gets old..

so the ps5 guitar also works with clone hero on pc? because on the website it says only the xbox version works with pc
