In 2006, the company was acquired by [[Creator/ViacomCBS Viacom]] through Creator/{{MTV}}'s short-lived gaming division. After declining sales due to over-saturation of both the Rock Band and Guitar Hero franchises and the impact of the Great Recession, Viacom sold Harmonix to it's stock holders by the end of 2010 after they marked the unit as a discontinued operation to write off a $299 million loss for its 2010 third-quarter earnings statement. As a result, Harmonix now operates as an independent game developer.

The company was founded in 1995, but it wasn't until 2001 that their first game, ''VideoGame/{{Frequency}}'', was released. They are perhaps most well known for starting the ''VideoGame/GuitarHero,'' ''VideoGame/RockBand,'' and ''VideoGame/DanceCentral'' franchises.

Harmonix, or Harmonix Music Systems in full, is a video game developer in Cambridge, Massachusetts. As the name might imply, they work primarily on the RhythmGame genre. The main reason behind this is because many, if not most of their developers, are passionate about music, and even have side projects related to their bands, such as: ''Freezepop,'' ''Music/ThatHandsomeDevil,'' and ''Bang Camaro'' (this is why many games feature their music).
