2009 The Beatles: Rock Band DLC Schedule Announced

Harmonix, creator of the Rock Band series, issued a press release this morning detailing this year’s full downloadable content schedule for the soon-to-be-released The Beatles: Rock Band.

Though The Beatles: Rock Band will include 45 songs when it lands on retail shelves on September 9, the game will also see three albums from the band released as downloadable content packs over the following three months. Each album will set you back $17 (1360 Microsoft points for Xbox 360 owners), though individual tracks can also be purchased for $2 (160 Microsoft points).
