John Wick Hex, the official title based on the John Wick film franchise, is set to be delisted from all digital storefronts starting the 17th.

The publisher, Big Fan Games, broke the news via the official Steam page on the 14th. According to the announcement, sales of John Wick Hex will cease across all platforms on July 17. While existing owners will retain access to the game post-cutoff, no new purchases will be possible. This mandate applies universally, spanning Steam, the PlayStation Store, the Nintendo eShop, and the Xbox Store.

Developed by Bithell Games, John Wick Hex is a tactical strategy experience wrapped in a distinct cel-shaded aesthetic. Players step into the shoes of John Wick to engage in combat. Beyond the standard management of health and ammunition, the game introduces 'time' as a critical resource; since every action consumes it, players must exercise meticulous strategic judgment.

The announcement remains tight-lipped regarding the specific reasons behind this delisting. However, given that it is a licensed product, it is highly probable that the IP usage agreement has reached its expiry without renewal. Despite being the sole official John Wick title, the game failed to capture the market's attention, sporting a mere 376 reviews on Steam and a peak of only 85 concurrent players, with an overall rating of 'Mixed'. The recent confirmation of John Wick 5 (working title) on April 2 suggests that the franchise is moving in other directions, likely contributing to the failure to secure a new contract.

John Wick Hex is currently available for purchase on Steam, the PlayStation Store, the Nintendo eShop, and the Xbox Store, and it officially supports Korean.
