Grand Theft Auto IV Mysteriously Delisted From Steam
Many people are well aware of the massively popular Grand Theft Auto series from Rockstar Games, especially with how successful the most recent installment has been. That said, fans have more than enjoyed previous entries, including the likes of Grand Theft Auto IV, which has mysteriously been delisted on Steam.
Neither Rockstar nor Valve have said anything about Grand Theft Auto IV being delisted on the popular digital retailer, but some people recently pointed it out. The page for the game still exists on Steam, but the option to purchase it has been disabled.

It’s unknown at this time why the game can no longer be purchased on Steam, but an explanation of sorts is sure to pop up eventually. There is a chance that a remaster could be happening, but that is unlikely as Rockstar has not announced as much. Another possibility is that a music license has expired. It could also very well be a simple mistake on Steam’s end. Essentially, we just won’t know until something official is said.
Grand Theft Auto IV is currently available across PC, PlayStation 3, and Xbox 360. Keep it tuned to Don’t Feed the Gamers as this story develops, and for other gaming goodness going on right now, check out the following:
