Just over four years after Amazon Game Studios first launched the title, its once-popular MMORPG New World: Aeternum is officially being shut down next year, with the developer planning to bring its servers offline on January 31, 2027. Notably, it's also been delisted as of January 15 (today, at the time of writing), so it's no longer available to purchase if you don't own it already.
Released on PC in 2021 as New World, Amazon's MMO skyrocketed to the top of the Steam charts and rapidly became one of the platform's most-popular games in the genre, with an all-time player count peak of 913,634 that makes it the 11th most-played Steam game of all time (according to SteamDB data).
