No More Guitar Hero/DJ Hero DLC

Activision will drop new downloadable support for its music games in just a few weeks, only a few months after the release of the latest installment.

In a FAQ posted to the DJ Hero website, Activision has revealed plans to discontinue releasing DLC for its Guitar Hero and DJ Hero games after February. That means no new songs for Guitar Hero: Warriors of Rock, or DJ Hero 2. The move comes amid what appears to be the complete shutdown of Activision's music game production. "Over the past two years, we have seen rapid declines in the music genre, and unfortunately, based on current demand, we simply cannot continue to profitably make these games given the considerable licensing and manufacturing costs," the FAQ states.

The statement goes on to say that existing DLC tracks and mixes will continue to be supported by the company.
