Hey folks! We have unfortunate news:

JYDGE will be removed from our store on October 24th, 2024, 1 PM UTC.

The silver lining here is that the game might return later. You can check out more information on its website: https://www.jydge.com/

A last-minute discount is unlikely to happen.

at the very least the game price isn't as high as many others that get delisted though the website says it was a complaint as in a singular complaint. So I wonder what the complaint was in this case

Agreed. What the hell... this game has been available for 7 years now. What kind of complaint warrants delisting.

[...] The game is now removed from sale from various platforms, but we are hoping to relaunch the game soon with a different name."


Please return November 5th, 2024 for more information. You may be surprised.
I could imagine the name sounded too similar to ''Judge Dredd'' and they are forced to change it.
(As was the case with Ion Maiden -> Ion Fury.) But there the change happened while the game was still in development. JYDGE has been available for 7 years now. What the hell...

Sometimes it takes time for IP holders to notice stuff.
Also: there may have been a longer (legal) discussion going on behind the scenes already, of which we just didn't know.

Ya my thoughts exactly I would have figured it would have if too similar to look and concept aswell as name to Judge Dredd at longest would have been up a year before this all happened

This sucks. I really enjoyed JYDGE (and the whole 10tons catalog).
Posted October 17, 2024
Would be extremely funny, if the new name would be DRYDD.
Posted October 17, 2024
That's strange. They are forced to make "a few changes"? I wonder, what these changes are. There is one nice easter egg, that I don't want to be removed.
Posted October 17, 2024
As always, thank you for the heads up and explanation
Posted October 18, 2024
Thanks for the advanced notice on this one, and also the additional info.

I don't think the owners of the Dredd IP have claim to the word Judge. My guess is it's a combination of stylistic elements like the title, the design of the main character and their weapon, etc.

Hopefully the people who have the game get the new version as an upgrade when it comes out. Still, interesting that it took seven years for a complaint.

Edit: Nevermind, the link is in the OP. :P

Time to backup the current offline installer to preserve the original game.

Update posted on JYDGE.com:
The sad news is that JYDGE as we know it will indeed be lost forever. The good news is that we are developing a successor/replacement.

The new game will be something between a sequel and a remastered version. It will contain a lot more new missions (+40 percent to be exact). It will also include all the missions from the original game, but each one has been altered to provide a fresh experience. There will also be more firemodes, cyberware, special weapons, more endings and more secrets.

The new game will be called JYSTICE.

We will be sharing more news within the upcoming weeks. If you want to be the first one to hear about it, or if you're interested in closed beta testing opportunities, please sign up for JYSTICE news.
