6 Cartoon Network Games Have Been Delisted

Warner Bros. Discovery's sudden removal of several Cartoon Network and Adult Swim games has sparked significant fan backlash. Without explanation, popular titles like Steven Universe: Save the Light and Samurai Jack: Battle Through Time have vanished from digital storefronts, including Steam and the Nintendo eShop. This leaves fans unable to legally purchase these beloved games.

This latest delisting follows a pattern of cost-cutting measures by Warner Bros. Discovery, which has previously shelved films and removed content from streaming services. A similar incident in March 2024 saw the threatened removal of several Adult Swim games, some of which were ultimately spared due to public outcry. This time, however, at least six titles have been quietly delisted as of December 23rd, 2024.

The affected games include:

Adventure Time: Finn and Jake's Epic Quest Adventure Time: Magic Man's Head Games OK K.O.! Let's Play Heroes Samurai Jack: Battle Through Time Steven Universe: Save the Light Steven Universe: Unleash the Light

Each game's store listing now displays a message indicating its removal from sale. While some related content, such as soundtracks or other Cartoon Network Games titles, remain available, the lack of explanation from Warner Bros. Discovery, Cartoon Network Games, and Adult Swim Games has fueled fan frustration. The removal of Samurai Jack: Battle Through Time is particularly controversial, as it features the canonical conclusion to the show's fifth season.

The oldest game affected, Adventure Time: Finn and Jake's Epic Quest, launched in April 2014, highlighting the longevity and popularity of these now-unavailable titles. The recent delistings, including those from 2018 and 2021, underscore the ongoing concerns regarding the preservation of digital games and the impact of corporate decisions on fans.
