Tanks are far, far from becoming irrelevant. Missiles have advanced, true, but so has protection. Abrams has frontal armour equivalent of, what, close to one meter of steel? Merkava IV boasts the most advanced antimissile protection ever deployed (emphasis on the word deployed, as in actual use, not on paper and internet boards). Armata could, in theory, be considered the most safe tank for the crew due to unmanned turret.
Chinese, Russians, others are still developing new models, and so does the West (though the deployment of a truly new tank is quit far due to multitude of reasons).
You can argue that in urban territories it is of less use, but so is everything else on wheels.
And APCs and IFVs doesnt have the same intimidating factor as tanks.
