Unlike the offline mode the channels contain video clips and live performances of the songs by the real bands as the player plays along and there are no dynamic interactions in the video. It was launched with 200 songs and new ones are added regularly. It offers multiple channels that stream songs all day long and most of the time different from those in the Guitar Hero Live mode.

The second part of the game is the online Guitar Hero TV mode. By completing songs they become available for Quick Play. This portion of the game contains 42 different tracks for different genres such as rock, alternative, metal, rap and dubstep. Each band plays a set of three or four songs on different stages of the festival and during the day or at night. It is an offline story/career mode where the player becomes a guitarist for different fictitious bands playing existing tracks from popular bands on a number of fictitious festivals. The first part of the game is called Guitar Hero Live. There is a short, interactive tutorial in the begin that explains the controls. Using the power instantly pleases the crowd and can save a performance. After collecting it, it can be unleashed at any time by tilting the controller upward or pressing a button at the bottom. These are marked with on-screen guitar picks.

Like earlier titles Hero Power (previously called Star Power) can be collected by correctly playing a specific series of blue notes on a track. There is also a casual difficulty level where only the strum bar needs to be used. On the casual difficulty only one row of buttons is used (white notes) and on higher ones (starter and especially advanced) there are often quick combinations of buttons in multiple rows.

Each song can be played in multiple difficulty levels. A note becomes a black and white square when two buttons need to be pressed together. There are three lanes and a white and a black colour is used to differentiate between the top or the bottom row on the instrument. While playing notes appear on a scrolling 'highway' in the centre of the screen with the video playing behind it. The instrument has been redesigned for six fret buttons instead of three and they are now lined up in two rows of three buttons.

The game is sold as a bundle with one or two guitar controllers and also as a retail package for the mobile iOS platform where the game itself is downloaded for free with an in-app purchase of $50 to unlock the full digital content. Based on the player's performance there are dynamic transitions in the video, as the band members will encourage or scold you and the same goes for the audience. While playing the camera shifts between watching and interacting with the band members and the audience. In the Guitar Hero Live mode each song is now played from the perspective of the guitarist during a real-world concert setting using full motion video footage. The largest difference compared to earlier titles is in the presentation.

Unlike the contemporary Rock Band 4 there is no backwards compatibility with instruments of content from earlier games. The core concept is identical: players use a plastic guitar peripheral to play the guitar sections of songs by following the cues on the screen and pressing the matching buttons on the instrument in time. Guitar Hero Live is an entry in the Guitar Hero series and a reboot of the franchise after the hiatus following Guitar Hero: Warriors of Rock in 2010.
