With Rock Band 4 set for launch on October 6, developer Harmonix confirmed that you are now able to re-download your previously purchased Rock Band DLC on PlayStation 4 and Xbox One.

“Keep in mind that this is only for those who are eager to re-download their content on to their next-gen consoles prior to launch,” they explain. “You DO NOT have to re-download at this time; your DLC entitlements will be available after launch. And as a reminder, you will only be able to re-download DLC for free within each console family (i.e. Xbox 360 to Xbox One; PlayStation 3 to PlayStation 4).”

Due to technical restrictions with Sony and Microsoft, batch downloads aren’t supported, so you’ll have to re-download each DLC entitlement and track individually in order to play them in Rock Band 4.

Here’s how to re-download your legacy Rock Band DLC on PS4

  1. Turn on your PlayStation 4.
  2. Sign in to the PlayStation Network ID that you originally purchased your legacy Rock Band DLC on.
  3. Navigate to the PlayStation Store.
  4. Under Search, type in “Rock Band 4″ and select the “Rock Band 4″ Game.
  5. Navigate to “Add-Ons”.
  6. Select “View All”.
  7. From here, you can do one of two things.
  8. Filter the list to see ONLY “Free” Add-Ons.
  9. Sort Price by “Low-to-High”.
  10. You should see individual DLC tracks come up as “Purchased”. These are the entitlements that you are able to re-download based on your account’s purchase history.
  11. Select the individual Add-On you want to download and select “Download”.
  12. The download should automatically begin and be added to your PlayStation 4 Downloads. Once completed, you should see that where the “Download” prompt used to be on this individual Add-On, it will now say “Installed”.
  13. You can always check your download history by navigating to Notifications –> Downloads from the PlayStation 4 Main Menu!
  14. Repeat step 9 for as many Add-Ons as you would like downloaded to your console.
  15. And that’s it! You can now play this content in Rock Band 4 when the game is loaded into your system!
