Publisher Versus Evil must have seen what happened with Arkham Knight and decided “hey, let’s do our customers one better.” Afro Samurai 2 has now been delisted from Steam and PSN, with copies disappearing from the libraries of each poor unfortunate soul who purchased the game. Refunds are being issued automatically. Steve Escalante of Versus Evil had the following to say about the decision to delist the game:
We could not do, in good conscience, volume 2 and volume 3. So we’ve begun the process, it’s been a long process to figure it out because Sony has never really had to do this in this way, but we’re returning all the money. So across the board we’re putting out an apology saying ‘sorry about this.’
It’s a rather surprising move considering how many other publishers would simply leave their product up for purchase, so good on them.
