One of Harmonix’s rhythm games is disappearing forever. Today, the company announced via its official forums that support is ending for Rock Band Blitz. The PlayStation 3 and Xbox 360 game will be delisted from the Microsoft Store and the PlayStation Store either by or before August 28, 2017.
In addition, there will be no way to continue playing Rock Band Blitz on current consoles. It is not compatible with the PlayStation 4 or Xbox One. However, people who did own the game can import its 25 tracks into both the PlayStation 4 and Xbox One versions of Rock Band 4. In each case, people can search for the “Rock Band Blitz Soundtrack” on the respective stores and, if they owned the game on that platform, can download its songs for the appropriate version of Rock Band 4.
The 25 Rock Band Blitz songs are:
- All-American Rejects – “Kids in the Street”
- Avenged Sevenfold – “So Far Away”
- Barenaked Ladies – “One Week”
