Telltale requests removal of The Walking Dead: The Final Season from storefronts
All but Nintendo have responded to the request thus far and TWD: The Final Season is still live on the eShop.
Telltale Games has officially requested to stop sales of The Walking Dead: The Final Season on all storefronts. A user spotted the delisted game on PC, PS4, and Xbox marketplaces and, eventually, someone spotted this message on GOG: "Telltale has requested a temporary pause of sales of The Walking Dead – Final Season. For all up to date Telltale news, please refer to their official Twitter page."
Instead of releasing Episode 2 of The Walking Dead: The Final Season on Steam... Telltale straight up delisted the game for purchase.
