Activision hit the big time with its Guitar Hero computer game franchise, and now it has plans to follow up with DJ Hero.

On February 8th Activision filed to trademark the name DJ Hero.

The trademark refers to “computer game software and related instruction manual sold together as a unit; interactive video game programs; computer game discs; downloadable software for use in connection with computer games; video game controllers; interactive video game comprised of a CD or DVD sold as a unit with a video game controller.”

It sounds like quite an interesting concept, although Beatmania was the first computer game to attempt to simulate the role of a club DJ.

There is no other information at this time, but it’s expected that simulation turntables and a mixer will take the place of the guitar controller.
