I’m diving into this, and wow—it’s like a breaking up of emotions and chaos. Anyway, here goes nothing.

So, you know that super intense game, John Wick Hex? Yeah, I heard it’s getting yanked from stores on July 17—like, poof, gone. Big Fan Games, the folks behind it, just spilled the beans on that. Isn’t it wild? It’s the only game with that official John Wick swagger. Honestly, I’m both surprised and kinda not.
Bithell Games, this indie crew from the UK, whipped up this whole tactical real-time thing set in the super-stylish world of John Wick. I mean, they dropped it first on PC and macOS way back in October 2019, and then it just kinda traveled around to other consoles. You become John Wick himself, rescuing pals Winston and Charon from some big baddie called Hex—played by Troy Baker. Ian McShane and Lance Reddick even lend their voices, which is pretty cool for fans of the movies. But here’s the kicker: the game’s leaving the digital scene, the entire shebang. Strange, right?
Meanwhile, if you’re on Steam and pop by their page, you’d see the official word from Big Fan Games—you can’t buy this thing after July 17. But don’t worry if you already own it; it’s not vanishing from your library. Your physical console copies are safe too, like old vinyl. Why’s it getting delisted? Honestly, I couldn’t tell you. Big Fan Games didn’t spill the tea on that. I guess it didn’t quite match the movies’ hype, but with its comic-book vibe, it still had its charm. Yet, some folks say the action’s a bit meh.
Ah, and the plot twist—I almost forgot. It had this one chance to buy before leaving shelves—retailing at $19.99—so, last call for those collectors out there! And did you catch the news about the John Wick animated flick coming up? Produced by Keanu and director Chad Stahelski, it’s diving into that infamous “impossible task” saga. Could add a new prequel twist. Fingers crossed, Lionsgate gives us more after confirming a fresh AAA John Wick game is in the works. Not much else on that yet. But hey, we can hope to dive back into Wick’s world soon, can’t we?
And, bam, there’s that other stuff—movies, TV shows. All thanks to Derek Kolstad’s rollicking universe. I went on a bit of a tangent. Sorry, it just happens.
