Delisting
Army of Two: The Devil’s Cartel was delisted on PlayStation 3 and Xbox 360 in October of 2021. Archive.org captures confirm the game’s availability as late as June 15th, 2021 but forum discussions beginning in October indicate it had recently been delisted. Along with confirmation on October 9th of some missing DLC, the PlayStation 3 version was confirmed to have been delisted by October 16th. The Xbox 360 version was confirmed to have been delisted by October 23rd when it was submitted to the site.
The game’s predecessor, Army of Two: The 40th Day, was also delisted between October and November of 2021. The cause for the delistings is uncertain but may have been related to licensed content featured in each title. The credits for The 40th Day denote that “this product may include in-game sponsorships or product placements” while Devil’s Cartel features music from and the likenesses of hip hop artists B.o.B and Big Boi.
