John Wick Hex will be delisted from all platforms on July 17
John Wick Hex , a stylish and well-received game based on the John Wick movies, will soon no longer be available to purchase. In a statement on the title's Steam page, publisher Big Fan Games says it will be delisted from all platforms on July 17. After that date, the publisher said, those who have already acquired the tactical action game from a digital storefront will still be able to download it. Physical console copies will still work too. Big Fan didn't provide an explanation as to why John Wick Hex is being removed from storefronts, though licensing issues may be at play. Mike Bithell, creative director at developer Bithell Games, said on BlueSky he was "unable to shed any light" on the reason for the delisting. "This one was a weird journey. [It] initially polarized folks, but now it's one of the consistent favourites people wanna chat with me about when I'm doing public stuff," wrote Bithell , who came to prominence with Thomas Was Alone and whose most recently released game was Tron Catalyst . "My first disappeared game, a weird feeling." It's always a shame to see a game vanish from storefronts. It's terrible for game preservation, and it means those who made the game will never be able to find a larger audience for it. You still have a couple of days to pick up John Wick Hex , however. It's on sale at Humble , where Steam keys are available for $4, or 80 percent off. If you buy something through a link in this article, we may earn commission.

One of 2014's Best Games Is Just $0.99 on PS Store
Another day, another great deal on the . There are literally hundreds of awesome games available at pretty steep discounts right this second. This includes a very cheeky that launched for the PS4 in 2014. Developed by Bithell Games' Mike Bithell, the critically acclaimed Thomas Was Alone is currently just 99 cents on the PS Store. That is a whole 90% discount off its typical $9.99 price point. It's also cheaper than many things you'd find at a dollar store, which don't really seem to sell anything less than a dollar nowadays, but maybe that's a story for another time (or another website related to grocery news). Anyways, players will want to act fast on this one as the offer ends on March 6. 'Thomas Was Alone is the critically acclaimed indie platformer about friendship and jumping,' reads the official description. 'Guide a group of sentient rectangles through a series of environments, combining their skills to reach the end of the level.' 'Discover the story of the world's first sentient AIs, and how they worked together to, well… 'escape' is a strong word. 'Emerge' might be better. 'Emerge' has an air of importance about it, while keeping a plethora of plot twists and origin stories under wraps. We didn't even mention the bouncing. That'd be overkill,' continues the description. When Thomas Was Alone launched for the PS3 back in 2013, it received favorable reviews. According to the review aggregate site Metacritic, it garnered an average score of 80 across 21 reviews. The game's narrator Danny Wallace received a BAFTA Games Award for his performance in the platformer. Thomas Was Alone for PS4 is actually a cross-buy product. So anyone who still owns a PS3, or the PS Vita could also play the award-winning game on those devices if they really wanted to. Anyone who finds themselves enjoying Thomas Was Alone can grab the Benjamin's Flight level pack. This just costs 34 cents, a 90% discount off its $3.49 list price.
