UT has good LAN support (and bots), so it also works without the original master server. It seems that they want to get rid of all their good games (except Jazz Jackrabbit).

Damn it. That notice for UT 3 on that page pretty much confirms UT 3 will never come here. Well, let's hope my retail copy lasts a long time.

Nevermind then. And for free? Very nice. Looking forward to it.

"with crossplay between Steam, Epic Games Store and GOG"

Basically confirms it's going to appear there. Thanks for the good news.

Also pretty sad they are officially pulling the plug on the UT Alpha they've been working on before Fnite became Epic's #1 priority. Hate to see the main franchise that put them on the map being treated like this.

We also removed the Mac and Linux versions of Hatoful Boyfriend and Hatoful Boyfriend: Holiday Star from storefronts today
From: https://www.epicgames.com/site/en-US/news/epic-is-turning-off-online-services-and-servers-for-some-older-games

Still available on GOG users' libraries if they got those games before they were delisted, but considering how much Epic's CEO loves Unix-based systems (sarcasm), I'd be impressed if it stays available for any more than 1 month.

Delisting announced for the Unreal Tournament games on GOG:
https://www.gog.com/forum/general/delisting_unreal_games_unreal_tournament_2004_ut_goty_unreal_2_the_awakening_special_edition

The post originally mentioned GOG was trying to negotiate with Epic to bring the titles back at a later date, but was soon redacted as, by words of a forum moderator through Discord, "(...) We simply didn't want to get people's hopes up while the situation is still developing. We will of course do our best to bring them back but as of now we have to delist them."

Risk of Rain

Risk of getting delisted due to an upcoming remaster that was announced recently, maybe today (store page already available at Steam with planned release date of 2023).

Now they are discounted... Buy them now if you want them

Maybe they will bring Risk of Rain 2 to GOG now...?
Huh... I doubt it though. *sigh*

Can't remember if it's been mentioned already, but the S.T.A.L.K.E.R. games may be at risk, specially the old ones.
If I'm remembering it right, one developer already died some months ago, and there was a news that another one died some days ago.

I fail to understand how developers dying has anything to do with the games being delisted. The newest game is supposed to release here as well so I don't see any reason for why they would bother delisting the old games.

From what I understand, if the IP belongs to the deceased dev, even if it also belongs to someone else, the process of sorting the rights out could cause complications in the right of stores to distribute titles of a given IP. And as I've seen some times already, games can get removed at least until those rights for the IP get sorted out.

But they only recently showed up these VN. And now they can be gone already.
