'Rock Band 4' PC update: Harmonix to offer entire 'Rock Band' music library for $2500

Harmonix has cooked up a way for fans to get the entire Rock Band DLC library for "Rock Band 4" PC. Harmonix

In the midst of its ongoing "Rock Band 4" PC Fig campaign, developer Harmonix has announced a backer tier that offers every single song made available in the "Rock Band" franchise.

Backers are given the across-the-board chance to acquire access to all the songs in the Rock Band Music Store, which are at least more than 2,000 at the moment (the number may change due to license expiration and renewals), for $2500.

That does not even count all the songs that Harmonix will be releasing for "Rock Band 4" prior to the PC version's launch, which is still up in the air at the moment.

While the $2500 price tag may appear plump right off the bat, it's actually half the actual price, if the each of these 2000 songs is counted with their regular retail price of $2.

Needless to say, there's a lot riding on the Fig campaign meeting its $1.5 million goal by April 6. At the time of writing, the campaign has garnered a little over $519,000.

There's still nine days left before the campaign wraps up and the fate of "Rock Band 4" PC is ultimately settled. Interested gamers can check out the campaign here.

This "Collector" backer tier was announced after complaints arose about players not being able to carry over the DLCs they purchased for the Xbox One or PS4 version to "Rock Band 4" PC.

As Harmonix explained, the DLC songs they put out are licensed on a per-platform basis, which means that songs from expansion packs intended for the consoles will not be usable in the PC version.

It is unclear whether this backer tier will be offered to console versions of "Rock Band 4." At the moment, here's what Harmonix has to say:

"We are looking into it, but for now we don't have any specific plans."
