Delisting
Republique was delisted from PlayStation 4 sometime between January and August of 2018. In August, publishing rights to the Steam version of the game changed hands from GungHo to Camouflaj, the game’s developer. It is likely that the PlayStation 4 version was delisted no later than than August, although discussion on PSNProfiles forums suggests it was removed “a few months back”. The game’s GOG.com release would be delisted just a few months later, on November 14th.
Camouflaj has not publicly addressed these delistings but it would appear to be related to the end of a publishing agreement with GungHo.
On March 10th, 2022 Camouflaj released REPUBLIQUE: Anniversary Edition on PlayStation 4 and Nintendo Switch. A PlayStation VR version of the game was also released on the same date, available alone or as a bundle with the PS4 title. In preparation for Meta’s aquisition of Camouflaj in October of 2022, the PlayStation 4 version would be delisted on August 6th, while the Switch release was reduced to $0.99.
