Crowdfunding push shows there is not enough of an audience to justify port

Harmonix cancels Rock Band 4 PC after disappointing Fig campaign

MCV Staff 7th April 2016 Development News

Developer Harmonix has ditched the PC version of Rock Band 4.

The firm announced this on its Fig page for the project, observing that there isn’t a large enough audience to make developing for this platform viable.

This follows Harmonix’s crowdfunding effort for Rock Band 4 and the Rock Band Network failing to meet its lofty $1.5m goal. The company launched this on March 1st and the campaign raised $793,000 – just over half what Harmonix was after.

MCV has the full story.
