HARMONIX CELEBRATES 5 YEARS OF ROCK BAND WITH HUGE DISCOUNTS ON OVER 1,100 TRACKS FROM THE ROCK BAND MUSIC STORE!
Cambridge, Mass. – September 17th, 2012 – In celebration of the launch of Rock Band™ Blitz for PlayStation®Network and Xbox LIVE® Arcade and the impending five year anniversary of Rock Band, Harmonix is excited to announce that it’s making expanding your Rock Band Music Library more affordable than ever before!
This week, Harmonix is offering a sale on over 1,100 songs available in the Rock Band Music Store on all platforms! Fans looking to boost their Rock Band music collection can now pick up select tracks from Rock Band’s mind-blowing catalog of music’s biggest artists. And these tracks, both as singles and as their associated packs, are now 50% off!
For more than 250 weeks, Harmonix has released fresh music content for the Rock Band franchise, including music from Avenged Sevenfold, Blink-182, Boston, Disturbed, Foo Fighters, Jane's Addiction, Mötley Crüe, Nirvana, No Doubt, Oasis, Ozzy Osbourne, Paramore, Pearl Jam, Queen, Rush, Slipknot, System of a Down, The Cars, The Police, The Who and more! The hits have kept rolling out for nearly five years, including track packs, artist releases, the Rock Band Network pipeline, and exportable games like Rock Band Blitz – totaling over 3900* songs available for the franchise overall. Throughout the years, Harmonix has shown a dedication to their fan base with this additional content, and this new sale continues that tradition!
With tracks playable in both Rock Band 3 and Rock Band Blitz, now is the perfect time to add to your collection of favorite songs for the world’s best music gaming platform! The sale is planned to launch Tuesday, September 18th on all platforms. For a full list of tracks on sale and dates of deployment on the Xbox 360® video game and entertainment system from Microsoft, PlayStation®3 computer entertainment system and Wii™, please visit this handy PDF with all the packs and songs included! |
| Quote: | Here is the expected timing for the roll out of discounts on different consoles in different regions. This is a HUGE update (seriously, we're discounting more DLC than most games have ever released) so there are a lot of moving pieces and things may not go 100% to plan, but we'll update if things look like they're changing.
Tuesday September 18th
Xbox 360 (worldwide) will be updating in a gradual roll out, and all pricing is expected to update by noon ET.
Nintendo should be updating at the same time that Wii DLC usually goes live.
Sony America (SCEA) is expected to update at the same time that PS3 DLC usually goes live.
Wednesday September 19th
Sony Europe (SCEE / Sony International) is expected to update when PS3 DLC usually goes live.
If you check in and content is not appearing with the new pricing, sit tight and it may be updating shortly. We'll be keeping an eye on things on our end to make sure we catch any content that slips through the cracks. Enjoy! |

It's a good thing I set aside some money for situations like this.

Oh, and for those who hadn't noticed yet, it's all pre-RB3 DLC that's being discounted. I think it's most of it, if not all of it.

Wow, this is great news. Will have to pick up some of these!
Someone who has all the DLC should create a list of the must-have packs on this list for particular instruments (or even better, the best packs for the whole band). I realize it would be down to that person's opinion, but it would help to pick out a few awesome songs/packs we might have missed.

Sucks for those of us who already own it all.
However, great for those of you who may be looking to check out the Rock Band: Harmonies Project (hint, hint).

What a great thing for Harmonix to do - half-price on all non-RB3 DLC. Makes sense since they have less instruments.
Between this and the European release of Rocksmith this month, I could easily see myself spending over £100 on music game DLC alone over the next few weeks.

Just noticed that they included the free songs. Apparently when you buy Promised Land, Still Alive, Headphones On, Am I Crazy, and the Megamix, 160 points will now be added to your account for each.
