This is a Pack/Addon for Rocksmith 2014, released in 2014 for PC, requiring the base game to function. As a music simulator enhancement, it adds five specific songs by Bullet For My Valentine ("Tears Don’t Fall," "Hearts Burst Into Fire," etc.) playable on electric guitar or bass. The core gameplay loop remains unchanged; you learn and play these new tracks using the existing note highway system, with each song featuring a new authentic tone profile designed to emulate the band's sound.
This add-on introduces five specific tracks from the Welsh heavy metal band Bullet For My Valentine into the Rocksmith 2014 environment. The integration is seamless; once purchased and installed, these songs become accessible within the existing game modes, such as Learn a Song, Score Attack, and Practice Tools.
The primary appeal of this pack lies in the specific musical challenge and tone emulation it provides. Each of the five included songs—"Tears Don’t Fall," "Hearts Burst Into Fire," “Your Betrayal,” “Scream Aim Fire,” and "Hand Of Blood"—comes equipped with its own new authentic tone profile. This means the game attempts to replicate the specific amplifier and effects setup used by the band for that particular track, allowing guitarists to practice or perform the song with a sound profile closely matching the original recording.
This content package does not introduce new core gameplay mechanics or systems. The gameplay remains consistent with the parent game, Rocksmith 2014, which centers on reading note highways in real-time to accurately play riffs, chords, and solos on a real instrument. The enhancement is purely additive, focusing on repertoire expansion rather than system overhaul.
The pack exclusively features the following five songs by Bullet For My Valentine, all playable on either electric guitar or bass:
As a Song Pack, the scope is narrow, focusing solely on delivering these five tracks and their associated tones. It is a brief addition designed to cater to fans of the specific artist rather than offering a substantial expansion of the overall game world or narrative (as the parent game itself is a music simulator without a traditional story mode).
The quality of the content is expected to align with the established note-for-note accuracy and tone modeling that defines the Rocksmith 2014 platform.
This specific content was released on November 25, 2014, and is currently available on PC via Microsoft Windows. It requires the base installation of Rocksmith 2014 to function.
