PlayStation Store delists Knack 2, God of War 3 Remastered and Uncharted Collection
The three PS4 titles have vanished from the North American storefront, though owners can still download them from their libraries.
The PlayStation Store in North America has delisted Knack 2, God of War 3 Remastered and Uncharted: The Nathan Drake Collection, players have reported. The games have disappeared from the PS Store in select parts of the world, according to TheGamer.
Owners who already bought digital copies are not cut off: the titles can still be downloaded and played from their libraries. Anyone who has not yet purchased them can no longer buy them from the store.
Updated reports say the removal was temporary and stemmed from pricing errors in other regions rather than a decision to take the games down permanently.
The delisting lands as Sony Interactive Entertainment prepares to stop producing physical discs. PlayStation has said no more physical discs will be produced starting next year, a shift that puts more weight on digital storefront availability.
Two first-party series caught in the change
Knack 2 was developed by the studio PlayStation later shut down, and neither Knack nor its sequel performed strongly in sales. God of War 3 Remastered and the Nathan Drake Collection package earlier entries in two of PlayStation's flagship franchises.
