End of an era.
And still no more Rammstein, Muse, Tool etc etc.
I really hope they will revitalize the genre soon.
Harmonix said:As you may have seen in our recent announcement regarding the release of Rock Band Blitz tracks as singles, Rock Band DLC production has gradually slowed over the past five years. We have managed to maintain a consistent release schedule for a staggering 275 consecutive weeks, releasing over 4,000 songs for the Rock Band Platform, but in recent months weve scaled production down as weve transitioned resources onto other projects. With several new titles in development and developers needed to usher these new games along, April 2nd will be the last weekly DLC release for Rock Band.
While there is no content currently scheduled beyond April 2nd, we still have DLC releases lined up for the next few weeks, including the remaining tracks from Rock Band Blitz, several Pro Guitar upgrades, and a handful of artists who have not yet appeared in Rock Band. Were incredibly proud of the DLC milestones weve set, especially producing the largest music library of any game available, and we wouldnt have been able to release as much outstanding content without the support of our amazing community. As thanks to the community, were going to continue the ongoing DLC sale of 50% off over 1,100 songs so fans can continue to build their personal libraries from our back catalog.
We hope that youll all agree that this has been a tremendous run, and you should know its a ride that we at Harmonix have been thrilled to be a part of. Were going to continue to support the forums and RockBand.com and hope to still see you rocking out online, in photos of Rock Band parties shared on Twitter and Facebook, or here on the forums. Whether you waited in line for a midnight release of Rock Band over 5 years ago, or you just joined the party with Rock Band Blitz whether youve downloaded every single song weve ever released, or youve just played on disc songs until your neighbors moved away whether youre a metal shredder, or a bubblegum pop singer thank you for being a part of our band.
