5 Video Game Genres That Have Essentially Disappeared

Rhythm games, like those in the Guitar Hero and Rock Band series, were incredibly popular for a time, receiving great reviews and attracting many players. While the genre actually started earlier, it really took off in the 1990s and continued to be a hit throughout the 2000s. However, interest began to decline in the 2010s. Rock Band 4, released in 2015, was the last major rhythm game that used instruments. While there haven’t been many instrument-based titles since, it’s possible they could make a comeback in the future.
