Harmonix has said that in terms of sales, the exclusive Xbox 360 for Kinect, Dance Central, has passed the game for DS, PS3, Wii and Xbox 360 Rock Band 3. "Currently sales of Dance Central were higher than those of Rock Band 3," said Alex Rigopulos to Destructoid. "Right now Dance Central is our best-selling game and I would say that the most consistent team in our studio is working on it, but I can not tell you more." In early 2011, Viacom sold the developer Harmonix.
A few weeks later, Activision has ended the division of music games, which included the business of DJ Hero and Guitar Hero. Despite the crisis of the musical genre, Rigopulos continues to believe in Rock Band, but not only: "We continue to invest significant resources on Rock Band, even in the long term.
We're looking at different revolutions of the Rock Band franchise. We are also investing significant resources on new IP and unusual concept. In addition to Rock Band and Dance Central we have several interesting ideas. "
