Hey heisters.

I'm sure a lot of you want to discuss the most recent news. If you missed it, the announcement is here: https://steamcommunity.com/games/218620/announcements/detail/2880571683990275439

So I'm creating this as a megathread for you all to leave any questions/comments/feedback for us.

Edit to add some answers to frequently asked questions. I'll keep adding more questions as I see them.

FAQ
Will this affect players who already own the Scarface Character Pack or the Legacy Collection?
No, existing owners will be able to keep access to the content they've purchased.

Will the Scarface Character Pack be removed from the Legacy Collection?
Yes, after October 1st you will no longer get this as part of the Legacy Collection.

What about the Scarface Heist DLC, is this affected as well?
No, this change only affects the Character Pack.

Are there any plans to re-release some of the content of the Character Pack?
No, there are currently no plans for this.

Will the price for the Legacy Collection change after October 1st?
Yes, although not massively. The way Steam bundles work is that the total price of the bundle contents is all added together before a discount is applied for purchasing the bundle as a whole. With one less part in the bundle, the total amount before the applied discount will be lower.

Soooo why is the Scarface DLC being removed?

Did OVERKILL lose the license to it or something?

[Gun Metal Grey]

What happened, is Scarface removed because of the storyline purposes or the license expired?

Does anyone know why it is getting removed

[Miles (Tails) Prower]

Oh man, Scarface Character Pack in not gonna be avaible soon...

What reason made such choice? I am not mad as I play Tony as main, but I was curious about that? Copyright issues or the contract with the one who voice acting expired?

[wavel54]

Probably the license they had has expired. If I had to guess.

Release for free Scarface's perk deck

It's fine if the character is going away due to licensing, but at least keep the gameplay part available to everyone.

[gorp's long lost cousin]

probably yeah the license has expired or is expiring, rip scarface.

[rare pepectics]

Not sure, I have looked into it.
From a point of view the DLC wasn't either bought quite a ton, or for copyright purposes.

[Bad Ass Jorge]

I think they did if so that means there might be a new scareface movie

[n0thing]

licensing most likely with Universial I think

[CookieClicker :)]

The license probably expired.

That's what I'm thinking too, the contract was just running out and wither or not stuff happened behind the scenes it just couldn't be renewed to keep the DLC going.

License is probably expiring, so they can't sell it after 30th of September
