Removed from Steam/Epic.
The 2K launcher is officially dead, much to the joy of everyone who has despised the 2K launcher since it burst onto the scene a few years ago and slowly dug its way into some of our favorite games. As announced on the official support board, the 2K launcher has been fully removed on Steam and Epic.
There’s a good reason for that ire too, since the launcher had a negative impact on games. It seemed to make Midnight Suns run worse, it messed with 2k’s games on Steam Deck due to Proton compatibility,
As of November 18, 2024, the 2K Launcher has been removed from every game that used it on Epic and Steam. Additionally, we also removed the “2K Launcher Beta”, a completely separate launcher, from Sid Meier’s Civilization V.
On November 25, a follow-up update was sent out via Steam to make sure the 2K Launcher was fully removed. You may notice the 2KLauncher folder was replaced with a text file called 2kLauncherRemoved.txt. This file isn’t needed, and you can safely delete it.
One of the questions on the FAQ is “Can I still use the 2K Launcher if I want to?” A question that has absolutely not been asked by anyone.
