Developer Harmonix has announced that Rock Band 4 will be delisted from PlayStation Store and Microsoft Store on October 5, as the game turns 10. It is being delisted due to “licenses for the core soundtrack” expiring. Rock Band 4 first launched on October 6, 2015 for PlayStation 4 and Xbox One.
The full message regarding the delisting:
Hey Everyone,
On Sunday, October 5, 2025, Rock Band 4 turns 10. What a ride it’s been.
With this milestone comes one big change: the original licenses for the core soundtrack are expiring. Because of that, Rock Band 4 will be removed from the PlayStation and Xbox digital stores. If you already own the game, nothing changes—you’ll keep full access and still be able to download the game and songs to any new, compatible devices. The same applies to downloadable content: songs will come down as they hit the 10-year mark, but anything you’ve purchased will remain in your library.
We’re so grateful for the passion this community has shown. From the team, it’s been a special experience to serve you with Rivals challenges, a super deep downloadable content library and a best in class band sim. If you’ve been meaning to grab a few last songs, now’s the time. Thanks again,
—The Rock Band Team
