However, today we received a DMCA take-down notice for the version that Nacon recently shipped, so we have responded to that notice.' 'An interim decision last fall appeared to give Nacon the right to distribute the game on Steam while the litigation proceeded. ' The Sinking City has been in dispute in French courts for a while,' said Valve VP of marketing Doug Lombardi in a statement to VICE Games.
The game was removed as the result of a DMCA takedown notice from Frogwares, according to Steam. You could search for The Sinking City on Steam, but when clicking on the game, it would send you back to the main storefront. But that changed this afternoon, when the game was no longer available. At the time of the accusation, The Sinking City was still on Steam.
