As a dedicated fan who has grown up with Cartoon Network, this latest turn of events leaves me feeling like a sad, defeated K.O., or perhaps a disheartened Samurai Jack, lost in time. The sudden delisting of beloved games like “OK K.O.! Let’s Play Heroes,” “Samurai Jack: Battle Through Time,” and the Steven Universe titles has left me feeling like I’ve stumbled into a dimension where my favorite games vanish without a trace.
This month has proven challenging for enthusiasts of Cartoon Network. Last week, it was confirmed that Toonami Rewind will cease operations, and today, additional disappointing news emerged: several video games published by Cartoon Network Games are being removed from digital platforms without prior notice. At least four titles appear to have been taken down, including “OK K.O.! Let’s Play Heroes”, “Samurai Jack: Battle Through Time”, “Steven Universe: Save the Light”, and “Steven Universe: Unleash the Light”. As of now, no explanation has been provided for this move. However, Grumpyface Studios, the team responsible for the development of the Steven Universe games, have acknowledged the delisting on their social media platforms like Twitter.
Our company has no role in the choice to remove Steven Universe: The Light Trilogy games and Teeny Titans games from circulation. Unfortunately, we can’t provide any additional information about this situation. If you have queries related to discontinuing these games, please direct them to Cartoon Network and WB. We share your disappointment.
What makes this situation even worse is the fact that, because this happened without warning, fans didn’t have a chance to scoop these games up ahead of their delisting. Usually developers and publishers will give fans a head’s up, but that was not the case with these games. They were simply available one day, and then gone the next. That said, there are some options available. For Switch users, digital codes for Samurai Jack: Battle Through Time and Steven Universe: Save the Light are both available on Best Buy’s website, as of this writing. Even with the games delisted, those codes should still work while they’re in stock. Fans can also try to track down some of the physical releases for these games.
In recent times, the video game industry has been grappling with a significant issue: frequent delistings. As publishers and developers shift towards digital games as an alternative to physical media, they’re simultaneously removing titles from circulation. This means that once a game is delisted, it can no longer be played by those who didn’t purchase it during its initial availability.
Ever since the announcement, countless fans of Cartoon Network have been actively tagging the company on Twitter, expressing their dissatisfaction and hoping for a response. This isn’t the first time that such strange delistings have occurred with this company. Earlier in the year, several independent games published by Adult Swim Games were at risk of being lost forever, but an uproar from the industry led to the rights for those games being handed over to the developers. However, this situation is unique as the games in question are tied to properties owned by Cartoon Network, making it more challenging to persuade the company to continue making these games accessible to the public.
