Warner Bros Games, the publisher of Hogwarts Legacy, has randomly delisted an indie developer’s game.

This isn’t the first poor decision Warner Bros has made this week, as the company has also closed the doors of the entertainment company Rooster Teeth, resulting in around 150 lost jobs. Now the company has delisted the Adult Swim Games title Small Radios Big Televisions.

In short, it’s a game about exploring virtual worlds found within cassette tapes. By collecting more and more cassette tapes you’ll unlock new ways to travel through them, as well as methods to manipulate them to learn whatever secrets they’re hiding.

The game was both a PC and PlayStation 4 title, though the version on Sony’s store page is set to disappear in the next few weeks, so there’s not long left to grab a copy if you’re interested.

Indie developer and creator of Small Radios Big Televisions, Owen Deery, shared the disappointing news on Twitter, and when asked why the company had delisted their game they said the reason given was “business changes.”


Fans, as you’d expect, didn’t take this news well, believing it’s unfair of the company to not provide a proper reason as to why the game will no longer be available.

Deery also confirmed that there’s no way to resell the game, as he’s contractually bound to Adult Swim Games, meaning the company is the only one who can put it up for sale anywhere. Since the delisting Deery has made the game free-to-play on PC, though it’s unclear for how long, as this could potentially breach the distribution contract.

For the time being, Small Radios Big Televisions is available on the PlayStation for the time being, and Deery has confirmed he’ll still receive royalties whenever the game is sold, but nevertheless it’s still an upsetting situation in a week already plagued with disappointing industry news.
