If you’ve ever dreamed of becoming a world-renowned rockstar, you’ll be happy to hear that you can make those dreams come true in Rising Star 2 that is now available for PC via Steam. The RPG simulation game puts players in the virtual shoes of a budding musician that blends sports simulation stats and tactical game play with “the musical bones of Rock God Tycoon”. Players will explore a musical open world and practice to hone their skills.
As the game progresses, players will be able to apply a number of custom options to their band as well as “tweak their setlists, buy their first pad, and secure a manager”. The freedom is all in the player’s hands to choose how to progress through their career.
