Rising Star 2 introduces a more immersive 3D world, yet retains the upgradeable classic RPG-style skill system found in the original.

Players can upgrade their songwriting, instrument playing, stage presence, production, repair, and business skills to make it to the top. With thousands of customizable combinations of items and outfits, they are in charge of building their own star. As the band leader, players must recruit musicians with compatible personalities, book gigs across the country to increase their popularity, earn money from odd jobs to stay alive while pursuing a music career and make their own path to become successful.

Rising Star 2 is a full musical career experience and players can tailor the customizable experience to fit any lifestyle they want.

“I am thrilled to bring the Rising Star franchise back to life,” said Todd Gillissie, founder of Gilligames. “Rising Star 2 is the perfect opportunity for those looking for an in-depth rock band simulator that requires you to build a rock career from scratch.”
