This is the sort of incident that prompts some gamers to take issue with the absence of physical copies for games and the idea of the “all-digital future” as it is sometimes called. This came about after Capcom released an update for Ghost Trick meant to fix the playing experience, but after the update produced another game-breaking bug (rendering dysfunctional the IAP system that allows players to progress through chapters) the game was removed from purchase histories altogether, per the TouchArcade article sourced below. Ghost Trick already cannot be purchased on the App Store, but those who had already done so were at least able to re-download the game. Now even those who have purchased the game cannot access it.

The puzzle-adventure game was completely delisted from the iOS App Store. Players of Ghost Trick on iOS were recently greeted with an ugly surprise.
