The series has yielded more than 20 releases across its lifespan across PlayStation 2 and PlayStation 3, and it appeared as a free app on PlayStation 4. Due to SingStars large variety spread across several discs, Sony has included a swap discs option that allows you to easily switch between genres without. It sold 20 million units within six years of its release. Tearing a page straight out of the Rock Band 2 playbook, Sony announced a new service to be made available through a firmware update that will allow folks to essentially rip the tracks from PS2. Singstar debuted on the PlayStation 2 in 2004, a crucial product in expanding the appeal of that console beyond the typical gaming audience of young males. "Your support over the years has meant the world."

"We've loved watching the community grow, and have lots of fond memories from working on SingStar," the company said. If you currently have a PS3 (which is what I have) and you have already purchased a PS3 Singstar game, you can now do a Swap Disc with the PS2 Singstar games. SIE has reminded users to download any digital purchases before January 31 next year. Songs will no longer be for sale on the PlayStation Store, and all shared content on will be deleted. SingStar users will be able to play offline and use their downloaded content after January 31, 2020, but all online functions and features will end on that date. Sony Interactive Entertainment is turning off the servers for SingStar, 15 years after the launch of the first game in the series.
