I'm very sorry for the late notice, but we've just received word from Codemasters that we need to remove <span class="bold">Blade of Darkness</span> from sales on GOG.com, as they no longer hold the distribution rights.

As usualy, we will continue our efforts to bring the game back where it belongs (as in: our catalog) as soon as possible.

The removal will occur at 6:00PM GMT today (that's in 1,5 hours).

We apologize for any inconvenience this may have caused you.

Thanks for the alert.

Almost got this during the last sale. didn`t. had my eye on it. meant to look into it. oh well.

any idea on who the rights went to and why they won`t leave it on gog?
Downloading right now. Sad to see that it is being removed.
Oh boy. That makes it the 45th game to be removed from GOG this year. I just hope we don't reach 50 by the end of the year.

Just bought it, downloading. I had just finished an intense session of Unreal... I was very lucky to catch this before it was too late, since the warning came very close to removal, indeed! Another game lost... what a pity!
Best game ever, already have it, it will be back, I guarantee it :)

Not only late, but also short notice. 90 minutes ... really, distribution contract should include a minimal notification time.

yeah, 2014 is full of bad omen at gog
CODEMASTERS REMOVING A GAME BECAUSE THEY DON'T HAVE THE RIGHTS ANYMORE AND DON'T WANT TO PAY FOR IT

HOW SURPRISING

There's a good reason why I don't trust them at all.
and gone.

farewell blade of darkness, we'll miss you.

and maybe one day we'll meet again.

I bought it during the Summer Sale but now it's not in my library. ???
Mine's vanished from my library too. I'm sure I owned it. Well done gog for not even giving a decent notice about it.
