Just yesterday, Amazon revealed that its four-year-old fantasy MMORPG New World would be coming to an end with no future DLC or updates planned, leaving both players and fellow video game developers disappointed at the news.

New World may be nearing its end. A new report confirms that the game is no longer sustainable, and Amazon Game Studios has set 2026 as the tentative cutoff for its servers.

Earlier this week, Amazon's games division confirmed that it is ending support for MMORPG New World on both PC and consoles.

New World originally launched on PC in 2021, with the Aeternum edition coming out on PS5 and Xbox in 2024. What seemed like a new era for the MMO ended up being cut short. If the game disappears in the coming years, at least part of it will live on in the Secret Level episode set in its universe.

New World Aeternum is shutting down development of future content updates, but will remain online through 2026, Amazon Games has announced.
