Is there a way to reinstall offloaded app

One of the app is not anymore in App Store, unfortunately this app now offloaded and all my personal files on it. When trying to reinstall coming message the saying it’s not on App Store any more do you want to delete it or keep? If I delete it all files will be gone!

iPhone 12 Pro, iOS 16

This cannot be Recovered:

No. Sometimes, items are removed from the App Store, and they never become accessible again. That's just the way it is :(


Why the Issue?:

It all has to do with licensing between Apple and the Developer (something you would have agreed to upon purchasing the app).
