The publisher and distributor announced the news on <a class=\"external\" href=\"https:\/\/store.steampowered.com\/news\/app\/2673080\/view\/491590284956666227?l=english\">Steam<\/a> (thanks <a class=\"external\" href=\"https:\/\/bsky.app\/profile\/wario64.bsky.social\/post\/3mema6bshls25\">Wario64<\/a>) earlier today.<\/p>\n<p>From <strong>31st March 2026<\/strong>, you&#8217;ll no longer be able to purchase the game digitally. However, if you already own it (physically or digitally) or buy it before 31st March, you&#8217;ll be able to redownload and play it at any point.<\/p>\n<p>No reason for the delisting was given, but it&#8217;s likely due to licensing rights expiring, similar to what happened with <a href=\"https:\/\/www.nintendolife.com\/games\/switch-eshop\/bill_and_teds_excellent_retro_collection\">Bill &amp; Ted&#8217;s Excellent Retro Collection<\/a> <a href=\"https:\/\/www.nintendolife.com\/news\/2023\/12\/bill-and-teds-excellent-retro-collection-is-about-to-be-delisted-on-the-switch-eshop\">a few years back<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>Here&#8217;s Limited Run Games&#8217; statement in full:<\/p>\n<blockquote>\n<p>We wanted to give you an early heads-up that the Jurassic Park Classic Games Collection will no longer be available for purchase on digital storefronts after March 31, 2026.<\/p>\n<p>If you already purchased the game, don\u2019t worry \u2014 you\u2019ll still be able to redownload and play it anytime.<\/p>\n<p>In the past, we learned how important it is to provide plenty of notice for changes like this, so we\u2019re committed to being as open and transparent as possible.<\/p>\n<p>Our goal is to give fans every opportunity to grab the game before it\u2019s too late. Thanks for understanding!<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p>Jurassic Park: Classic Games Collection came to Switch on 22nd November 2023, so by the time it gets removed from the eShop, it&#8217;ll have only been out for around two years and four months. The games included are:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Jurassic Park (NES)<\/li>\n<li>Jurassic Park (Game Boy)<\/li>\n<li>Jurassic Park (SNES)<\/li>\n<li>Jurassic Park (Genesis \/ Mega Drive)<\/li>\n<li>Jurassic Park Part 2: The Chaos Continues (SNES)<\/li>\n<li>Jurassic Park Part 2: The Chaos Continues (Game Boy)<\/li>\n<li>Jurassic Park: Rampage Edition (Genesis \/ Mega Drive)<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>So, the Collection perhaps <em>isn&#8217;t<\/em> the best showing for the iconic dinosaur franchise, but it&#8217;s a time capsule of 8 &#8211; and 16-bit games made in the wake of the 1993 movie&#8217;s huge success. We acknowledged this as much in our review, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.nintendolife.com\/reviews\/switch-eshop\/jurassic-park-classic-games-collection\">scoring the selection a 6\/10<\/a>.<\/p>\n<hr>\n<p><em>Do you own the Jurassic Park: Classic Games Collection?
