The Beatles: Rock Band is a teen-rated music video game developed by Harmonix Music Systems, published by MTV Games, and distributed by Electronic Arts. The game consists of songs from The Beatles, from their first album Please Please Me, to their penultimate album Abbey Road, as well as previously unreleased material according to Dhani Harrison, son of George Harrison. The game was released internationally on September 9, 2009, coinciding with the release of the remastered versions of The Beatles catalogue. The game is shipped as a bundle with themed instrument controllers, but all existing Rock Band and compatible music game accessories can be used. The game incorporates many of the gameplay features of the Rock Band series. However, the game is not an expansion pack for the Rock Band series, as Harmonix co-founder Alex Rigopulos has stated that this game "...is a new, full game title production built from the ground up".

The Beatles: Rock Band was conceived with input from former Beatles Sir Paul McCartney and Ringo Starr, along with Yoko Ono Lennon, Olivia Harrison, and Giles Martin. Martin, the co-producer of The Beatles Love project, served as music producer for the game. Dhani Harrison, son of George and Olivia, has also been actively involved in the project, including modelling for character animation.
