Nobody likes this kind of news, believe me, I don’t give any either. But unfortunately they are coming. This is the removal of one or more games from digital stores. Sure, the Microsoft Store is not spared by this tragedy neither, and the proof is these 41 Xbox 360 games you can’t buy digitally anymore. Although the list after that grew.
The fact is that today we are adding at least two more games. This has been confirmed by Slighty Mad Studios. Project CARS and Project CARS 2 will be released from digital stores and it will no longer be possible to purchase them that way.
Two Project CARS games will be retired
Interestingly, the CARS 2 project will disappear before the CARS 1 project…a strange decision. The main reason why this happened is none other than a license problemit’s that you have to use the real licenses, that you have to renew and if the player base doesn’t follow, the studios don’t find it profitable to renew them.
The thing is, unlike those 14 games that are shutting down their servers on Xbox 360, the servers for both Project CARS if they will be active, they are only taken down upon purchase.

Moreover, one more detail, if you have already purchased one of these two games, you can redownload them whenever you want. I emphasize that the only thing that will happen after September 21 is that you will not be able to buy them.
