Spec Ops The Line Game has been permanently delisted from Steam and other stores
Spec Ops: The Line was released 12 years ago. Developed by YAGER, it is a controversial title due to its plot, but it is still a highly regarded third-person military shooter. However, yesterday it was removed from Steam and other game stores. Publisher 2K explained that this was due to the expiration of “several partnership licenses.”
