DC’s Justice League: Cosmic Chaos is about to do the licensed‑game disappearing act, with publisher Outright Games confirming it’ll be pulled from digital storefronts sometime in March. The delisting hits Steam, Switch, Xbox, and PlayStation, barely three years after the game launched back in March 2023.
Outright says the game is being removed because its DC license is expiring, and they’re not renewing the deal. There’s no exact shutdown date yet, just a vague “during March,” but the Steam announcement notes that it’ll be discounted until March 6, and console storefronts are matching with 90%‑off deals in some regions.
If you already own Cosmic Chaos digitally, you’re safe: it will stay in your library and remain fully playable, achievements/trophies and all. Physical copies also aren’t affected, so discs and carts instantly become the “archival” version by default.
Cosmic Chaos isn’t some shovelware tie‑in, either; it’s a light, family‑friendly open‑world brawler that reviewed decently and runs well on handheld PCs and Steam Deck. Losing it after such a short lifespan is yet another reminder of how fragile licensed digital games are. Once the paperwork lapses, a solid mid‑tier release just vanishes for anyone who wasn’t paying attention.
DC’s Justice League: Cosmic Chaos is described as a colorful, kid‑friendly action‑adventure where you swap between Superman, Batman, and Wonder Woman in open‑world Happy Harbor, clearing dungeons, unlocking abilities, and hoovering up loot in a breezy, cartoon‑styled, Diablo‑lite take on Justice League brawling.
For anyone who likes co‑op cape stuff, or just wants more comfort‑food action games on their Steam Deck, this is the “buy it now or probably never” window. At four bucks (or regional equivalent), it’s hard not to view this as a slightly depressing clearance sale on a game that never got the time it deserved.
