A 2024 PS5 multiplayer RPG, which joined PS Plus Extra in July 2025, is already ending support and will eventually shut down. Amazon Games has announced that it’s no longer sustainable to continue supporting New World: Aeternum. As a result, Season 10 and Nighthaven update will be the game’s final content.

In a note to players, Amazon Games said that it plans to keep New World: Aeternum servers live throughout 2026. Additionally, the game will remain accessible to PS Plus Extra and Premium subscribers until further notice.
As for what happens after 2026, the publisher hasn’t detailed its plans yet, but did pledge to give players plenty of notice.
In the meantime, New World: Aeternum will remain available for purchase via PS Store, and its Nighthaven update is free for all players.
“Players of Aeternum: Your dedication and enthusiasm have made this New World adventure an unforgettable journey,” Amazon wrote. “We’re deeply grateful for every moment you’ve spent helping build this extraordinary world alongside us. It has been an honor to share Aeternum with you, thank you for helping make this game something truly special.”
New World: Aeternum’s microtransactions are not being pulled yet. Amazon has said that players shouldn’t expect refunds, however, so keep that in mind before spending money.
