''Snoopy Flying Ace'' has a majority of its content lost (including the full game) and only the demo of the game remains. Because of licensing issues, the game was delisted from the Xbox Live Marketplace on August 12th, 2016, as a result of Wildworks not renewing their license.<ref>[https://delistedgames.com/snoopy-flying-ace/#:~:text=%20April%2018%2C%202019%20Delisting%20Snoopy%20Flying%20Ace,2010%2C%20around%20the%20game%E2%80%99s%20release.%20About%20the%20Game Delisted games page on ''Snoopy Flying Ace''.] Retrieved 10 Feb '22</ref> Due to this, the game cannot be downloaded anymore. It is not backwards compatible with the Xbox One either. However, many videos are up, showing the gameplay.
