Guitar Hero On Tour: Decades's setlist is considered "a trek through time" by IGN, featuring sets of five songs out of a total of twenty-eight tracks. Each set focuses on a specific era of rock music, including two called "2000s" and "Modern".[1] Each set has a specialized venue for the era.[1] Once all the songs in the set are completed, the player is presented with a final encore song for that set while also unlocking the next set.[1] Additional bonus tracks are unlocked for completing specific requirements in the game.[1] All songs are master recordings as opposed to cover versions used in the previous game.[2]
The setlists are different for the North American,[3] United Kingdom/Netherlands/Australian,[4] and non-English European (Spanish, French, German, and Italian) releases.[5] Seven songs in each are exclusive to the respective versions.[2]
The Decades setlist was considered to be an improvement over the original On Tour, with more songs that would be "much more appealing to fans" of the console versions of Guitar Hero".[6] IGN felt that the setlist "starts out bad but starts getting more enjoyable as you unlock the earlier decades".[7]
