Don’t worry about Mixtape being delisted, as Beethoven & Dinosaur paid extra for perpetual licensing

Rest easy, Rockford.

While games can sometimes be amended or even delisted over expiring licenses, that won’t be the case for Mixtape, both Beethoven & Dinosaur and Annapurna Interactive have confirmed.

While the likes of Star Trek Resurgence has been pulled from digital stores over an expired IP licensing agreement, and music like David Bowie’s “Space Oddity” has been removed from Alan Wake over an expired licensing arrangement for that particular song, Beethoven & Dinosaur’s Johnny Galvatron has told Kotaku that steps have been taken to ensure the game’s core — its soundtrack — remains intact.

Galvatron told the outlet that his studio has paid extra to ensure music licensing will be kept in perpetuity, with Kotaku stating that “the game should be fine years or even decades down the line”.

“We heard some people say Mixtape would be delisted due to music licenses expiring. That was a lie,” added publisher Annapurna Interactive in a post over on Twitter.

Mixtape is available now on Windows PC via Steam and the Epic Games Store, alongside Xbox Series S, Xbox Series X, PS5, and Switch 2; it’s also available through Xbox Game Pass. We gave it 10/10 in our review, right here.
