On December 2, Harmonix posted an update to the authoritative Fuser website that reads: “On December 19, we volition beryllium disabling Fuser’s unrecorded services and each income of the game, arsenic good arsenic its DLC. Players who already ain FUSER volition inactive beryllium capable to play the Campaign and Quick Play with immoderate DLC they person already acquired.” The station acknowledgment players for their enactment and for “all the astonishing mixes implicit the years.”

While Fuser will technically inactive beryllium playable to those who already ain it, players volition beryllium restricted to conscionable those 2 offline modes. Gone are the co-op and competitory multiplayer modes which allowed you to conflict oregon premix euphony with different players. And with nary much unrecorded work support, that means that immoderate DLC you person is each you’re gonna get, ever. As idiosyncratic who has played and enjoyed Fuser but ne'er bought the DLC, the crippled is lone arsenic beardown arsenic its euphony selection—limiting that is astir surely the authoritative decease of the game.

Whenever I played Fuser it was either portion streaming oregon with a ton of friends sitting connected my bed, drinks successful hand, screaming erstwhile I pulled disconnected a sick driblet oregon successfully faded “Bodak Yellow” into “Funky Cold Medina.” It’s a amusive enactment game—so overmuch truthful that my cool, manner manufacture friends would get perfectly hyped astatine a accidental to marque their ain mixes. I’ll ne'er hide erstwhile 1 of them zoned retired connected Fuser for astir an hour, ignoring everyone other astatine the enactment and letting retired screams of excitement and giddy giggles arsenic she made immoderate of the astir horrendous-sounding songs I’ve ever had the displeasure of hearing.

I tin inactive technically recreate that magic astatine aboriginal location parties, but considering we yet grew bushed of the euphony astatine our disposal, the inability to get immoderate much songs makes it acold little appealing.

And to beryllium fair, nary 1 has truly been playing Fuser—at least, if the Steam stats are to beryllium believed. As of publication, the crippled has lone had 19 radical playing it successful the past day, and lone a small much than a twelve mean players successful the past six months. But the decease of Fuser has larger implications, astir notably that the property of bushed games is officially over. Kotaku reached retired to Harmonix and Epic Games (who bought Harmonix past November) for remark connected what went into the determination to shutter the game, but person not received a effect astatine the clip of publication.

Even though Activision CEO and alleged cover-upper of wide institution problems Bobby Kotick precocious said helium has a great thought for the instrumentality of the Guitar Hero franchise, the decease of Fuser whitethorn mean the decease of the bushed games’ triumphant return. Oh well, astatine slightest I tin inactive play Guitar Hero portion shitfaced astatine a Dave & Buster’s.
