After taking a year off to create The Beatles: Rock Band, Harmonix is back to focusing on the next evolution of the Rock Band series. Today they announced (via their Facebook page) that Rock Band 3 is in development and that we should be able to play it this Fall.

"Harmonix is developing Rock Band 3 for worldwide release this holiday season! The game, which will be published by MTV Games and distributed by Electronic Arts, will innovate and revolutionize the music genre once again, just as Harmonix did with the original Rock Band, Rock Band 2 and The Beatles: Rock Band. Stay tuned for more details!"

Rock Band 3 will be the second Rock Band game released this year. Green Day: Rockband will be releasing in the Summer with the option of importing the songs into your overall Rock Band music library. Seems like a no-brainer that Harmonix will let you import all your Rock Band 2 tracks (for a small fee of course) once Rock Band 3 is released. We will update you when more information is announced on this.

The Beatles: Rock Band added three-part vocal harmonies to the mix. What kind of direction do you feel the series should take now? What improvements would make Rock Band 3 a day one purchase for you? Let us know your thoughts in the comments below.
