Thanks to NeoGAF user Delusibeta, it has been brought to our attention that Activision’s Deadpool has mysteriously disappeared from Steam, PSN, and Xbox Live.
According to a tweet by Activision’s community manager, Dan Amrich, the game is officially gone for good, along with a rather lengthy list of victims of the same fate:
- Spider-Man: Friend or Foe
- Spider-Man: Web of Shadows
- Spider-Man: Shattered Dimensions
- Spider-Man: Edge of Time
- X-Men: The Official Game
- X-Men Destiny
- X-Men Origins: Wolverine
For those asking about it: Marvel Activision titles are no longer available for digital download. http://t.co/pabtJkcDnL Hence the sale!

As you can see on that Facebook post mentioned in the tweet, this was actually announced on December 21st; however, it didn’t get all the attention it needed.
If you are a PC gamer, you should look out for the very few remaining Steam codes via Amazon and Gamefly; but that’s about it, so if you want to have this game in your library, I suggest you go and get one of these codes as soon as possible before they run out.
Nothing has been said about retail copies, so you might still be able to get retail copies of these games. They may not be making additional copies of these games either.
