Relisting

Postal III was relisted on Steam on October 13, 2023, after the game was updated to remove its DRM. The original delisting information follows.

Delisting

Postal III was delisted from Steam on November 20, 2022, when its price was set to $0.00. Postal developers Running With Scissors announced on their Twitter that day to state that the game was delisted due to DRM issues and the game’s largely negative reception. Postal III used ActControl DRM, which is no longer functional as its website is now offline.

Postal III remains available on ZOOM Platform, where it is DRM-free. The game was also released at retail and through GamersGate, however, both versions are unplayable due to defunct DRM servers.

Postal 3 was previously delisted on Running with Scissors’ own storefront on August 25th, 2012, out of “the best interest of the Postal Community.”



About the Game

Good or Insane? The choice is yours.
Following the Apocalyptic end to the Postal Dude’s week in Paradise, we follow him and his insane pitbull Champ as they emigrate to its appropriately named sister city, Catharsis. Unfortunately, due to the Global Economic Meltdown, psychotic left-wing “Green” extremism and hypocritical Government corruption, it turns out Catharsis isn’t a much better place to live.
What path will you choose when faced with the antics of a hypocritical scheming Mayor? A berserk cartoon mascot with Al Qaeda ties? A former Vice-President’s cadre of Eco-Zealots? How about Gay Segway “biker” gangs, and a sociopathic cult leader Uncle with nuclear ambitions? Will you give in to your base instincts and fight fire with gasoline? Or will you rise above it to become something more, to serve and protect your fellow citizens from the rampant insanity of our modern society?
