Games disappear from steam nearly every day. There're a few reasons why this happens:

-dev closes down
-license expires on an ip
-new version of the game is released
-dev breaks terms of conditions (most common way is "buying" thumb ups and positive reviews)
-dev threatens violence on valve employees

Maybe studios should stop licensing songs and make their own music.

The music is a huge part of what made Alan Wake so good though.

I would say probably not. It's likely a P.T. type of situation. You need it installed now or you're out of luck.

No. You can install games that have been removed from Steam.

Well idk about Xbox, but probably. I have a physical copy though, as well as the steam version.

Although you can keep the game if you own it, you won’t be able to buy Alan Wake again as of May 15.

sounds like you just can't buy it. I don't see why you would need to have it installed but idk

If you buy/activate a game on steam, it will always be available. I have plenty of removed games that I've played to completion.

You will be able to download and install it whenever as long as you own it before it gets delisted.
