This is awful. What happens to the games themselves? I haven't played hifi rush yet but it's been on my list.

Nothing.

The games are the property of the publisher (in the case of Hi-fi Rush, Microsoft Games), so (baring licensing issues like music) as long as the publisher is around the game should still be around.

Editor? Do you mean publisher?

Yes, sorry, I used the word from my first language

Hifi Rush is in Humble Choice this month, and I noticed they have a redemption deadline which is a bit out of the ordinary. So it's possible it'll get delisted, or maybe Humble is just playing it safe with the keys they have.

Oh I'll check it out on there then thanks for the headsup

It could get delisted in the future if there were any licensing deals, although that can happen for any game. If you already own it on Steam you'll be able to keep downloading and playing it indefinitely.

I don't know but it still hasn't been cracked... I imagine things would be very bad if they decide to pull it for some reason...
