John Wick Hex<\/em><\/a> is being removed from Steam (and all other platforms) this week, according to a statement released by the game\u2019s publisher, Big Fan Games.<\/p>\n

\u201cJohn Wick Hex<\/em> will be removed from sale on all platforms beginning July 17th, 2025,\u201d the statement shared on the game’s Steam page reads<\/a>. “After July 17th, 2025, existing owners of John Wick Hex<\/em> will still be able to access the game via their digital libraries (PC\/Console) and\/or physical copies (Console), however new purchases of John Wick Hex will not be possible, regardless of platform or storefront.”<\/p>\n

Developed by Bithell Games and released in 2020, John Wick Hex<\/em> is a cel-shaded tactical strategy game in which players take on the role of the king of revenge himself. The game plays a bit like a board game, and its combat is time-based,<\/a> not turn-based, so in addition to managing health and ammo, players must also manage the most valuable resource of all: time. Each action eats up some of that time, from a fraction of a second to reload, to multiple seconds to bandage up wounds. Run out of time, and you fail the mission.<\/p>\n

Big Fan Games\u2019 statement didn\u2019t detail the reason for the game\u2019s impending removal, but given the fact that the publisher is mainly known for publishing licensed games, it\u2019s possible the publisher\u2019s license to use the John Wick IP has expired and not been renewed. John Wick Hex<\/em> is currently the only official John Wick game on the market.<\/p>\n

John Wick Hex is currently available through Steam<\/a>, the PlayStation Store<\/a>, Nintendo eShop<\/a>, and Xbox Games Store<\/a> for $19.99. It\u2019s also available on PC via Humble, which is selling the game for just $3.99<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Polygon has reached out to Bithell Games for comment and will update when the company responds.<\/p>\n
