Is there any legal way to purchase GTA 2 for PC?

It got de-listed from Steam, it's not on GoG either.

Archive.org is probably the best and safest way to get it now.

@CannonGoBoom thanks! Did not know it was on archive

Thank you so much, it got Test Drive Unlimited 1&2.

It was available free from Rockstar, a few years back but it looks like the link doesn't work any more. They took it off sale at the same time.

I'd grab it from archive.org or something, given they already set the price at "free"

Does it count as "pirating"? I just don't want to get in any trouble with the ISP.

I don't think anyone is coming after you for this, but I obviously don't know what country you're in

I know it's not what you asked for, but I remember a couple of years ago someone making a game heavily inspired by GTA 2. Never got around to playing it myself, but it looked good.

Can't find it right now though. Googling gave me Glitchpunk, which looks similar, though not as I remember it. And apparently it's stuck as early access and might be dead. Maybe someone else will remember that other game I remember.

Retro City Rampage?

@Zugumba @gaming didn't they give it away for free for a while? Or was that the first GTA? 🤔

@Zugumba @gaming there are tons of download links on respectable German sites.

This one's in English and I don't know it, but seems legit.
