Title: Zoom Platform and retro titles like GTA and Duke Nukem are at risk, following Steam games ban
Post by: Redaktion on August 04, 2025, 23:00:45
Often viewed as an alternative to GOG, Zoom Platform sells popular DRM-free retro games. After the controversial bans of Itch.io and Steam games, payment processors now have concerns about the marketplace. In response, Zoom Platform is introducing two-factor authentication and digital wallets.

Yes, Visa and MasterCard will attack the biggest game series ever in an attempt to protect their reputation. Also, I have swamp land in Florida I want to sell you. There's no indication this will happen other than some literal who from Zoom (which I just heard of because of this) going "DURR IT COULD HAPPEN MAYBE."
Games "journalists" are jokes.
