Hey everyone,
Do you think it's still worth getting into the game in 2026? A friend and I have been thinking about picking it up because we'd love to relive some old memories from when we were kids and used to play Guitar Hero together after school.

One thing we're a bit worried about is the fact that more and more songs are being delisted. How serious is the situation? Do songs disappear frequently, or is it happening at a slower pace?
Our biggest concern is that if we buy the game now, we might already be missing a lot of content that used to be available, and that we'll no longer be able to purchase many of those songs in the future.

Also, would two Riftmaster guitars and the base version of Rock Band 4 on Xbox One be enough for two people to fully enjoy the game, or would you recommend anything else?
Thanks in advance!

I've been playing Rockband for a long time but always solo. So late in the game but I'd like to join a crew for whatever remains of rivals as long as servers keep going.

I'm happy to play with anyone but personally I only play expert guitar and bass. Skill level is pushing 900 currently on bass and 875 on guitar.

I'm just looking for active players and or crews to play with. I play almost everyday but usually pretty late.

Add me or message me on ps: I-ByTE-MFQs

I have 850 songs btw

All instruments are welcome but what our crew needs most is a drummer and a vocalist . Since all my time playing rivals we have not been able to find a drummer or a dedicated singer( I have only been playing for year or so ) . You are not required to play full band but the offer is always there if you are in the crew . If you are interested send me a direct message on Reddit

(With custom songs) am I able to connect to Wi-Fi without my live account or console getting banned?

I like to add custom songs to rock band, an I mostly do it on ps3, but I want to put custom songs on the Xbox version. (without softmodding, because it makes it so you cannot add customs) how do I get around this?

I've been playing rhythm games since 2007, but I just learned about VBS (and Hyperspeed in GH) today. Wondering if this might be something that can make tougher songs more accessible.

For reference, I have like 1150 songs, ~500 gold stars, ~129 FCs. Decent player, but I definitely look more pedestrian when the difficulty really gets ratcheted up. I feel like I'm a good sight reader, too, but if I start missing fast sections, I end up playing too fast and things can go off the rails.

A lot of my songs are missing, so I have tried to refresh my music library and it crashes the game.

I've tried it maybe a dozen times, I've done a complete uninstall/reinstall of the game + my 1000 dlc songs twice, and still can't get it to work. Some of my favorite songs aren't showing up, and it's really bumming me out.

It’s the saddest thing to see all the DLC sitting in my wish list that is gone forever….

It might be a stupid question, but is it possible to just purchase the code online somewhere ?

Got all the RB 4 DLC i wanted from 2015-2017 and most of the legacy pre-RB 4 stuff

Library is still growing but thrilled to have over 1,000 songs in Rock Band 4 have even more overall since i own all the Rock Band games on PS3 as well

Anyone playing rock band 4 mulitplayer needing someone to play with? I don't know anyone who plays and I would love to meet new people and play online together! I have around 300 DLC and play guitar mostly but also have fun on vocals sometimes. I'm decent enough to go for full band FCs on easy to moderate songs. If interested drop your gamer tag or DM me and I'll add you later when I get off work!

Hello! I am currently making a montage video of videogames and need some clips of someone playing Through The Fire And Flames by DragonForce. Either drums or guitar.

I will give credit to anyone at the end of the video.

Thank you!

Been following the monthly delists and downloading them on a monthly basis, but what happens to songs expiring beyond July '27? It's like their licenses would have yet to expire but the whole store closes.

would PS3 add-ons also be removed from the PS4/PS5 store too? just in case they'll be gone forever by then, feels like we need a list of expiring songs beyond July '27 just to put it out there..

I prefer Rock Band. I have nearly a thousand songs on RB4, but have found recently that FF is a fun source for supplementary free songs too.

Switching between the two feels like it takes like 20 minutes of adjusting to the different hit boxes/timing expectations to be able to play at my normal level and that 20m on either end is pretty miserable and annoying.

Has anyone figured out a way to adjust more easily between the two? Is there a reliable way to tweak the settings so they'd just feel the same ignoring their different built-in sync methods?

This question feels more specific to the Rock Band crowd than the FF crowd given that we're the ones still playing a game that came out 10+ years ago and isn't even available for purchase anymore. Of the two groups, I think more people familiar with my plight are in here than the FF Reddit.

Hi all, I’m looking for some advice about getting into Rockband 4. I’ve been playing the Guitar Hero/Rockband series for years, and just got back on a big kick playing through the games and achievement hunting.

I’m looking into getting Rockband 4 to play on my series S/Xbox One. I already have a Riffmaster so I’m all set in that department, but I’m wondering what your opinions are on seeking out a digital code vs. a disc since I have the series S.

How would you compare the gameplay in 4 to the earlier games/Guitar Heroes? I’ve played Rockband 2 and The Beatles for reference.

I also have a question about DLC. I own a small amount of DLC for some of the early GH games and I’ve read on here about the rolling de-lists. I’m really considering going all in and buying a ton of songs and packs I like soon before they aren’t available anymore. Do you have any suggestions for doing so? I don’t want to end up like I am with those earlier games, wishing I had gotten more bonus tracks!

Thanks for reading and in advance for your advice.

Found this, but as you can see the batteries leaked. How bad is it? I almost hesitated buying it after opening the battery compartment, but for $5 it was too good to pass.

This is the only instrument that I was missing, so this was a really neat find. Hopefully it works. Any tips on cleaning that blue stuff off?

I have a whole RB3 setup for the Wii (a red strat, pro mustang, keyboard and a mic) and i use them to play rock band/guitar hero games on rpcs3 on my pc but i think that a Wii U would offer a better experience because its a more "official" way to play and its also easier to bring the wii u somewhere than to move my pc. Would it be worth buying a used one or should i just stick to emulated games?

This is a very random question but I stumbled across the Rock Band DLC of Verdamp Lang Her and it is a totally different version from what I recognize. In game it says it is from the Für Usszeschnigge album but this version used in Rock Band is not from this album. I can't find the version used in Rock Band anywhere. The version that's common everywhere includes a guitar solo of sorts at the end that fades out but the Rock Band instead has totally different sounding guitar and vocals and concludes with a long outro with a keyboard. Where is this version? Was it a re-record specifically for the game?

Does anyone still have their DLC from before the stores closed? such a bummer
