Wii Rockband’s getting Styx, REO Speedwagon, System of a Down, The Clash and tons of other stuff this week.

Which is all very exciting, but not enough to make us format a list of tracks. Find it, instead, in the press release after the break.

REO Speedwagon and Styx are heading to Rock Band next week in the form of a seven-track song-pack.

A three-pack from progressive rock outfit Hautewerk is also expected..

Here’s what you’ll get:

• Styx – Blue Collar Man (Long Nights), Renegade, Too Much Time on My Hands
• REO Speedwagon – Ridin’ the Storm Out, Roll with the Changes, Take It on the Run
• REO/Styx collaboration – Can’t Stop Rockin’

• Hautewerk – Stop Start Again, Alone in My Head, I Know Where You Came From

Each REO and Styx song will run you 160 MS Points ($1.99) each or 880 MS Points ($10.99) for the track pack.

Hautewerk is available in track pack only for 440 MS Points ($5.49).

Each will arrive on XBL and PSN on April 21 and April 23 respectively.

EA gave attendees at Wondercon 2009 a look at Dante’s Inferno last week, and put in a bit of a backstory on the muscly fella.

While not exactly like the epic poem, Dante does go to Hell looking for Beatrice — but that’s where most of the similarities end.

The game starts with Dante killing Death, finding his wife murdered and being taken to Hell by Lucifer, breaks down the gates, and starts his journey through the nine circles taking down any denzien that crosses his path.

The game is currently being developed by folks who had hands in God of War II, Half-Life 2, Metroid Prime, and Dead Space.

Loads more information is over on Destructoid, where there’s talk about Dante’s boat ride across the river Styx.

Game’s sounding better and better all the time.
