The game begins during the band's earliest days at The Cavern Club in
Liverpool, England. Gamers will then travel across the Atlantic to
experience the band's unforgettable 1964 performance on The Ed Sullivan
Show, the sold-out concert at New York's Shea Stadium in 1965, and
conclude at The Beatles' memorable concert at Budokan in Tokyo, Japan in
1966. The Beatles' studio years will come to life in legendary Studio 2
at Abbey Road Studios. Highlighting the studio years are inspired
artistic visual expressions known as Dreamscapes, intended to transport
players to imaginative environments that capture the essence of The
Beatles' genre-busting musical and fashion transformations during their
later years. The game follows The Beatles to 1969 where story mode
culminates with their final performance on the rooftop of the Apple
Corps Headquarters.
