As planned, April launches with three tracks from Lynyrd Skynyrd off their 1973 self-titled album. These include “Freebird,” “Simple Man,” and “Gimme Three Steps” for Guitar Hero 5 and Band Hero. Lynyrd Skynyrd is definitely not new to the franchise, particularly Freebird that I remember playing in Guitar Hero 2, and I imagine them to be a welcomed return.

Read on for pricing information for each console.

The Lynyrd Skynyrd Track Pack is available via Xbox LIVE Marketplace for 440 Microsoft Points, on the PlayStation Store for $5.49 and the Wii Shop Channel for 550 Wii Points. The three songs are also available as single downloads for Xbox 360 for 160 Microsoft Points, PlayStation 3 for $1.99 and Wii for 200 Wii Points each.
