Dear GOG,

It has come to our attention that the recently region-locked games are suddenly visible (and purchaseable) within their formerly locked regions. This was spotted by mrkgnao and confirmed by ElTerprise.

Is this intentional, and thus a reversal of policy regarding region locks? Or merely a glitch side effect of the ongoing system changes?

Thanks for any clarification you can provide.

----------

EDIT: Looks like the unofficial answer was "it was a glitch". Not expecting an official answer then.

Small correction. This was spotted by MaGog. I was merely the grunt tasked with posting it on the forum.

I submit you are one and the same. To wit, your tagline here. And the fact that "MaGog" is very nearly anagrammatically hidden in your username. :)
Confirmed: Commandos Ammo Pack is available for purchase here in Germany.

Was the German-language version always there? I don't think there's ever been an uncensored German version of the game, so it's a fair bet that installing the German version of the game will remove the swastikas.

Funnily enough, Mortal Kombat has always been visible for me.

Quite so. If you have any doubts, just look at the last few days' posts on the "what did just update?" thread.
Well, you know the feeling, you created foxworks and look what happened...

Yes, it was there before.
Both are available. Hotline Miami 2 Deluxe cost A$25,99.
No Commandos 2+3 for me :(

Golemancy skills around here suck ;-p
And it's all gone :(
Looks like the Commandos-Games are blocked again :(

German store back 978 games.
