2K pulls Spec Ops: The Line from digital stores without warning
"The themes portrayed in Spec Ops: The Line are more relevant now than ever," the game’s director said.
Unfortunately, the news that it won’t be available digitally is a huge blow to the game’s availability.
If only there were other, off-market alternatives for acquiring video games that aren't subjected to licensing agreements... 🤔

Oh god, it's 2K publishing.
Which means that the game disappearing from storefronts is one of the better case scenarios. It's entirely possible that they'll patch out the licenced songs from the soundtrack from every digital copy of the game.
