Do you remember a game we covered just over a month ago named Broomstick League? The title was quite clearly a rip-off of the wizarding world's sport of Quidditch found in Harry Potter, complete with a Golden Snitch and flying broomsticks. It could have been a fun, if slightly shameful, experience, but the game is most likely never going to see the light of day anymore. Released in Early Access on PC, Broomstick League is no longer available for purchase while the developer has removed its entire existence off the internet.
What was the game's Twitter account now sports a message saying: "This account doesn’t exist" and the URL that the game was using no longer even links to a website. Meanwhile, a message on the title's Steam page reads: "At the request of the publisher, Broomstick League is no longer available for sale on Steam." We reckon the folks over at Warner Bros didn't take too kindly to this clear copy cat and ordered it be taken off sale over copyright concerns. As such, Broomstick League probably isn't ever releasing on PlayStation 4.
Were you hoping to play Broomstick League? Look forward to the Harry Potter RPG instead in the comments below.

Wow that’s insane, it looked really good and I’d heard decent things from early access. It’s a shame, it’s not as if, y’know, battle royale games aren’t massively based on an IP at the end of the day.
Too Bad! It was becoming more and more popular online. In fact, some say it was (dare I say).... sweeping the nation!...
... I'm here every Tuesday, folks!
Hopefully they’ve done some kind of backroom deal and will reappear in a more official form.
Yikes. That sucks. Looked like it could have been fun :/
