Bad news, folks - two multiplayer PlayStation games have just been shut down for good, leaving players with no choice but to move on to other things.I’m not going to lie, I always worry about getting attached to live-service games for this very reason. With any single-player game (or even multiplayer games which still have a single-player mode, for that matter), you always know that no matter what, so long as you keep your game disc, cartridge or download safe, you’ll be able to continue playing it long into the future, if that’s what your nostalgic heart desires. Sadly, the same can’t be said for games which rely solely on multiplayer servers to function.Earlier this year,Apex LegendsMobilewasshut down a year after its launch, but fans can still play onPCand consoles. Take a look at some funny wins and fails below.As ComicBookreports, this is exactly what happened toLemnis GateandDreadnoughtyesterday (11 July). They’ve both been shut down on all platforms, meaning thatDreadnoughtplayers on PC are also affected, as areLemnis Gatefans on PC,XboxOne and Series X/S.AdvertIn case you were unfamiliar,Dreadnoughtwas afree-to-playflight sim shooter game which first landed onPS4in 2017.

The “time-warping” game encouraged players to consider the past, present and future while they laid out their strategies in an attempt to take down enemies. This one released in September 2021, so it’s really not been going for very long at all.Again, there’s no way to play either of these two games anymore, so it’s truly the end of an era for anyone who was still an avid fan.Featured Image Credit: Sony, Krzysztof Hepner via UnsplashTopics:PlayStation,PlayStation 5,PlayStation 4
