PayPalAfter being removed from various stores back in 2019, GOG have revived Alpha Protocol from Obsidian Entertainment along with the launch of their own Spring Sale. The original removal was due to expired music rights.
In regards to the release GOG said "With conjoined forces of GOG, Obsidian Entertainment and SEGA, we’ve made sure to make it better than ever; compatible with modern PCs, with licensed soundtrack and performance improvements that are sure to make this timeless classic, yet again, your favorite spy story".
To go along with the re-release GOG also worked with Raycevick to produce a video on reviving it:

Quoting: Cybolic"There are over 27 thousand abandonware games in world-wide circulation. That is more than half of Steam's current library"
Great, we're one sentence in and I already don't trust this video

You can't really fault them for trying with the math
Quoting: ToddLI wonder if they'll ever put this version up on Steam in the future because I'm sure there will be enough people that want to buy this game for those that missed out on it before the delisting.
Quoting: CyborgZetaI wish it was on Steam. I basically quit buying games from GOG a couple years ago because it was easier just playing games in Steam. Still, I'm glad to see GOG do this, and I'm willing to buy it.
It was on Steam previously. And you can still find keys on some third party resellers, but they cost like 90 euros now. Which is probably too much for a simple convenience...

Right but the GOG version has a lot of changes to it to make it run better than the one that was on Steam and I was just wondering if they'll ever put up that version in the future.

Quoting: JarmerI did end up buying Alpha Protocol on GOG and installing Heroic, and everything does seem to work just fine.Quoting: CyborgZetaI wish it was on Steam.

It is much easier in steam, however I have had good success just using Heroic to do all my gog playing. You can just use whatever the most recent GEProton is by default for all games. Not AS easy as steam, but kind of close.
