River City Ransom: Underground To Be Delisted From Steam After License Expires

Owners keep access through their Steam libraries after the store page disappears.

Overview

  • Conatus Creative announced on December 30 that the Steam delisting is underway due to an expired licensing agreement with the River City IP holder Arc System Works.
  • The Steam listing shows an 85% discount to $2.99, and store images have been removed as the process proceeds.
  • People who already own the game will still be able to download and play it from their Steam libraries after removal from sale.
  • The title remains purchasable on GOG and Humble for now, where it is listed at $19.99.
  • SteamDB data shows a brief increase in concurrent players during the discount, and prior downtime was previously tied to a false DMCA takedown.
