Πρόσφατα έληξε το συμβόλαιο της Frogwares με την εκδότρια εταιρία Focus Home, και πλέον η πρώτη στέλνει press releases όπου διαμαρτύρεται για το γεγονός ότι η δεύτερη αφαιρεί τα παιχνίδια της Frogwares από όλα τα ψηφιακά καταστήματα, εκτός από το http://Sherlock Holmes: Crimes and Punishments">Sherlock Holmes: Crimes and Punishments
Για να "ευχαριστήσουν την κοινότητα" για την υποστήριξή τους, δίνουν δωρεάν ένα digital booklet για τα Sherlock Holmes games.
<blockquote><strong>9 out 10 Frogwares games ended up being removed from stores</strong>
Able to retain Sherlock Holmes: Crimes and Punishments on Steam and GOG
Team release free digital booklet to thank fans for their support
04 October 2019 - Dublin, Ireland |
On September 26th 2019, Frogwares highlighted that their games were being removed from various online stores following the expiration of its publishing agreement with Focus Home Interactive.
Today, Frogwares has shared that of the 10 store listings that were under threat, 9 were permanently removed. The team was, however, able to fully recover the Steam store listing for Sherlock Holmes: Crimes and Punishments and have also now released the game on GOG.
“<em>The outcome is pretty bleak, and we are now fighting an uphill battle, trying to resubmit our games back on their stores where possible. As we previously said, the process is going to take several months, but there's hope and we will continue to push on.</em>
<em>We are forever grateful for the sheer amount of public and industry-wide support we got, and we truly appreciate everyone who added their voice to the issue. To show our gratitude we put together a digital booklet for Sherlock Holmes games and have released it for free to everyone. A big thank you to all the community that did actually reach out to us to try help once we brought this to light.</em>” - Wael Amr, CEO, Frogwares
