Mixtape Secures Perpetual Music Rights as Publisher Denies Delisting Claims

Overview

• Publisher Annapurna Interactive said Saturday that talk of Mixtape being pulled over expiring songs was false.
• In a new Kotaku interview, creative director Johnny Galvatron said the team paid extra to license the soundtrack in perpetuity.
• The move removes the risk of a music‑license delisting, though other issues could still force a removal.
• Mixtape features about 28 licensed tracks and remains on Nintendo Switch 2, PC, PS5, and Xbox Series X, including Xbox Game Pass.
• The clarification follows a run of removals tied to lapsed rights this year, such as Star Trek: Resurgence and early Forza Horizon titles.
