From the message in the linked page:
“We received a complaint about the game in its previous form, but we were able to resolve it amicably by agreeing to make a few changes. The game is now removed from sale from various platforms, but we are hoping to relaunch the game soon with a different name.”
Please return November 5th, 2024 for more information. You may be surprised.
From what I could find, the game is/was available on:
- GOG (which also had a delisting announcement)
- Steam
- Humble Bundle (DRM free + Steam key)
- Microsoft Store (Windows, Xbox One & Series X/S)
- Epic Games Store
- Google Play (already delisted - archived page)
- IOS (link doesn’t load, so likely already delisted; archived page)
- Nintendo Switch (Nintendo eshop page)
- PlayStation Store (PS4 + PS5; apparently already delisted, so archived page)
I can conjecture two possibilities. First, that it’s indeed a “scam lawsuit”, and the attacker aims for smaller devs so he can scare them into paying out. Second, that it was a complaint made by the Judge Dredd rights holders, as the game and the judge, jury and executioner police have a small bit of a resemblance.
