“Sudeki, a world torn apart into light, shadow and dark. However, it is also possible that Climax is winding down operations and the game could be delisted from Steam as well. It’s possible that the terms of their agreement with GOG.com could be renewed and the game returned to sale in the future. Climax Group does not appear to be dormant but their production has dropped significantly over the last few years. Sudeki was likely delisted after the expiration of Climax’s publishing deal with GOG.com. For everyone who purchased it prior to delisting, the game will remain in their GOG library.” “We’d like to inform you that Sudeki will be delisted from our catalog tomorrow, May 28th, 10am UTC.
Its removal was announced earlier the same day on the GOG.com forums: That is very interesting.Sudeki was delisted from GOG.com on May 28th, 2020. Fallout 1, 2, and Tactics could not be bought on GoG until they hashed out a new deal, which took a couple of months. This is what happened when Bethesda bought the rights to Fallout. Also, if the right holder transferred/sold their rights to some third company then depending on how the deal is written the contract may become invalid until a new one is drawn up. Staredown: Presumably for the same reason anything is ever delisted from GoG.Ģ) Far far far more likely than 1) is the current contract with the rights holder just expired (or rather will expire tomorrow) and either the rights holder or GoG or both decided not to renew the contract.
Again, extremely unlikely this is why, but it's strictly speaking not entirely impossible.Ģ) Far far far more likely than 1) is the current contract with the rights holder just expired (or rather will expire tomorrow) and either the rights holder or GoG or both decided not to renew the contract. Also if Poland (because GoG is based out of Warsaw) decides to ban a game, GoG may be forced to delist it entirely even for people in other countries (depending on how strict Poland decided to make the ban). It is a ride) and GoG had to remove the game until a deal could be made with the actual rights holder. I can not imagine that is the case here, but there have been questions of who owns the rights to certain games before (if you enjoy legalese, look up the case around Star Control. Presumably for the same reason anything is ever delisted from GoG.ġ) The listing was somehow illegal in the first place.
