Activision Blizzard isn’t having the greatest start to the week, dealing as it is with the effects of a protracted sales slump as well as a refund program that’s been announced for Activision’s ill-fated Guitar Hero Live.
The refund is for US consumers who bought the game between December 1, 2017 and January 1, 2019, and while the publisher didn’t say, it’s assumed the refund is a result of the shutdown of the Guitar Hero TV streaming music service in the game. Engadget notes in a piece today that with the shutdown of the game’s streamer, that also culled its library of songs from 484 to just 42 — no doubt frustrating gamers who paid for more songs.
