All right, rock stars, pack it up. There is no justice left in this world. For its 10-year anniversary, Rock Band 4 is getting delisted.
"On Sunday, October 5, 2025, Rock Band 4 turns 10," Epic Games producer Kyle Wynn writes in the Rock Band Discord channel. "What a ride it's been. With this milestone comes one big change: the original licences for the core soundtrack are expiring. Because of that, Rock Band 4 will be removed from the PlayStation and Xbox digital stores."
Before the sting of this revelation completely settles in, Wynn clarifies that those who have already purchased Rock Band 4 – including any of its DLC – will be able to retain their access to the game and download it "to any new, compatible devices."
"We're so grateful for the passion this community has shown," he concludes.
"This is a crime against gaming," says one fan reacting on Reddit.
Since Wynn broke the devastating news, some people have been scrambling to buy Rock Band 4 DLC before it's gone and you can no longer complete the sanctified ritual of knocking out a random Papa Roach song on a plastic guitar. The Rock Band Discord is currently full of players debating what to purchase, when to purchase it, and idly noticing that they might be clogging up the Rock Band 4 servers in the process.
"Almost like everyone is trying to buy from the store all at once," observes one Discord member. It's understandable. If we can't buy Rock Band 4 flowers for its funeral, we should at least serenade it with "Eye Of The Tiger."
