Revolution Software successfully crowdfunded the “Reforged” remake of Broken Sword: Shadow of the Templars back in February of this year. The remake launched on Steam and GOG.com in September but in the team’s latest update from October 31st they’ve announced that the previous Director’s Cut versions of the game will soon be delisted.
Broken Sword: Director’s Cut is being delisted from Steam, GOG, App Store, and Google Play Store.
If you already own Broken Sword: Director’s Cut on these platforms, nothing will change. At the moment platforms like Steam, GOG, App Store, and Google Play Store allow you to access unlisted games through your game library or app purchase history. For as long as that is a supported feature you will be able to re-download Director’s Cut, however buying the game will no longer be possible.
This was not an easy decision to make, but Broken Sword: Director’s Cut has been neglected for the last few years, and knowing that we won’t be able to spend any significant dev time on it for the foreseeable future, it didn’t feel right having this game actively up for sale anymore. This might change in the future, but for now we are delisting it.
NOV 4TH WE WILL START THE PROCESS OF DELISTING DIRECTOR’S CUT
Lots of love, and Happy Halloween from us all at RevolOooOootion Spookware
The Director’s Cut version remains available as of this writing on Steam (in some bundles too), GOG.com, iOS and Android but it’s expected to disappear at any time. If you’ve got an interest in this older release, grab it soon!
