PICO PARK: Classic Edition to Be Delisted After Being Made Permanently Free

TECOPARK announced on June 1 that PICO PARK: Classic Edition, the original Steam version of the co-op puzzle game made permanently free in 2025, will be delisted soon. The game is still available for free download on Steam, and already-downloaded copies remain playable. The delisting follows a policy quirk that prevented the developer from reverting the game to paid status.
TECOPARK announced on June 1 that PICO PARK: Classic Edition will be delisted from Steam. The game, originally released in 2016 as PICO PARK, was renamed and made permanently free in 2025 after the developer discovered that Steam's store policies prevent a game from being switched back to paid once it has been set to free. The delisting follows that policy dead end. The game is still available for free download on Steam, and anyone who has already added it to their library can continue to play it. The exact delisting date has not been specified.
