The Rivals expansion becoming free on a permanent basis only fuels the rumors that Rock Band 5 has been in development for the next generation of consoles.Įven if there is no Rock Band 5 in the foreseeable future, the Rock Band 4 fanbase will keep the game going for years to come.

With regular updates on a weekly basis and customer support being active online, many believe that a fifth entry is coming in the next year or two. It remains to be seen whether or not Rock Band 4 is the final entry into the series. This week, the game released both “Bombs Away” by Blastergun and “Die Out Here” by De’Wayne ft. Harmonix has routinely introduced two new DLC songs every week. While Rock Band 4 doesn’t have the largest concurrent player count, it still has one of the most dedicated fan bases in all of gaming. Meanwhile, the Rock Band store has over 2,500 songs to download at a price that typically ranges from $0.99 to $1.99 per song. Rivals has 35 songs that are permanently added to playable songs at no additional charge for players. The price drop was part of the seventh-anniversary celebration of Rock Band 4 hitting stores. Harmonix announced that the bundle is now set at a base price of $39.99. For those that don’t own Rock Band 4, the full game with the Rivals DLC is heavily discounted permanently, as well. Now, that number is going to be $0 permanently for Rock Band 4 owners. Rivals initially cost $29.99 for Rock Band 4 players and stayed at that price point for the most part for several years outside of some temporary sales (though the Rock Band instruments remain hard to find).

Shortly after the one-year anniversary of Rock Band 4’s release, Harmonix debuted the Rivals expansion pack that allowed players to take their musical talent online, forming crews and working together as a band. Released in 2015, Rock Band 4became a fan favorite due to its gameplay being similar to the first entry into the series. Now, players who own the base game can get the expansion for free on a permanent basis. Rock Band 4 owners who have been waiting for a markdown in the Rivals DLC don’t have to wait for a sale anymore.
