Activision has announced that the upcoming Band Hero game headed to the DS will come with a new drum grip peripheral.
The game is headed to all the major consoles and like previous band games, will allow players to play along to music as a drummer, guitarist, bassist or singer.
The DS version will have a touch drum pad that is inserted in the GBA slot, making the game incompatible with the new DSi.
David Nathanielsz, 'Band Hero' executive producer, says, via GI.biz that "the reason for adding the peripheral was to make it more comfortable to rapidly tap the game's drum patterns."
The game is set for a fall release and will likely retail for 49.99 USD.
