No I’m more thinking they would remove them and keep them exclusive on epic as they are part owners now. Sure the games are shit but that is not the point
Yup. There’s a few old re-releases there, not sure if they’re patched up for modern Windows though. Actually, they had a publisher sale on Steam quite recently.
And not just that, when they acquired LucasFilm they not only got a backlog of old Star Wars and Indiana Jones games already on Steam, but also Sam & Max Hit the Road. AFAIK Sam & Max is an independent franchise but LucasArts and thus Disney own the rights to Hit the Road.
I have been blindsided before, but honestly right now I’m in the same boat on that. Disney isn’t interested in app deployment or distribution, just to advertise their products to kids.
And even so, my copy of SAMHTR is still on my Steam account and the files are there to use with ScummVM (which I believe LucasArts actually did when the game hit Steam)
They will probably pull their games from steam next.
Oh no.
Anyways…
And what, put them on Disney+?

Oh Disney has games on steam?

I doubt they’d pull their games off of Steam. Disney are interested in Fortnite as a content delivery platform, not in EGS

Sam & Max is Double Fine if I’m not mistaken
I think the new games are, Hit the Road was LucasArts and was part of Disney’s publisher sale on Steam a little while back.
