Get Ready for a Nostalgic Comeback: A New Guitar Hero Controller for Wii Set to Release in 2025

No, you are not misinterpreting the title — online gaming accessory manufacturer Hyperkin has unveiled a distinctive Guitar Hero controller. In 2025. For the Nintendo Wii.

Revealing the announcement on New Year’s Day (as reported by GameSpot), the Hyper Strummer is a nostalgic controller aligned with the firm’s previous model and compatible with all Wii iterations of Guitar Hero — ranging from Guitar Hero 3: Legends of Rock to Warriors of Rock — along with Rock Band 2 and 3. And don’t worry about the original Rock Band, the controller will not be functional with the initial game in the series.
