EDIT: Slight correction. I said Focus published The Sinking City. It was in fact Big Ben Interactive that published TSC. Focus handled the Sherlock Holmes games.

Focus Home Interactive was on track to being my favorite game publisher after stepping up to serve the mid-tier market in an industry crammed full of greed "AAA" tripe.

Unfortunately, Frogwares has stated that Focus is delisting its games over a licensing dispute. The distribution agreement between Frogwares and Focus has ended, but Focus isn't giving the right to sell the games back to the studio.

Frogwares makes the Sherlock Holmes games and the recent glorious mess that is The Sinking City. Focus has published those games alongside belters like The Surge 2, Vampyr, and A Plague Tale: Innocence.

So really... this news thoroughly sucks.
