New World will remain online until January 31, 2027. Amazon Games has officially confirmed that the MMO will continue running until that date before going offline permanently, meaning there's now a real end date on the calendar for anyone still investing time into Aeternum. The clearest breakdown comes via VGC's report confirming New World has one year left before it goes offline, which spells out that once the servers go dark, New World will no longer be available to play—a finality that hits harder than the usual "content slowdown" many MMOs experience. If you've ever stepped into Aeternum for faction wars, crafting grinds, or territory control, this is the point where you start thinking in terms of "last runs" rather than "next patches". For a quick refresher on the world's vibe, New World: Aeternum Awaits — the official trailer showcasing its world and combat is still a strong snapshot of the atmosphere and identity that pulled so many players in early on.
New World's final year is now a chance to close the book on your own terms. With an end-of-service date locked in, the smartest move is to prioritize the experiences you'd regret missing—finishing story content you never completed, pushing one last crafting goal, or simply running dungeons with friends while matchmaking still has life in it. MMOs are as much about shared memories as they are about numbers on a character sheet, and the shutdown window creates a strange but motivating pressure to actually do the thing instead of saving it for later. If you're deciding whether it's worth reinstalling, watching the official New World: Aeternum Awaits trailer doubles as a quick "do I miss this?" test before you commit to another long session.
No Rest for the Wicked has surpassed 1 million copies sold. Moon Studios is celebrating the milestone alongside the launch of its co-op update, which is a strong signal that the game's audience isn't just buying in—it's sticking around long enough to justify meaningful expansions to how it's played. The best look at what this update is trying to deliver is Moon Studios' official "No Rest for the Wicked Together" co-op trailer, which frames co-op as a core way to experience the game's combat, progression, and moment-to-moment tension. In practice, co-op doesn't just add extra bodies—it changes how you approach builds, how you recover from mistakes, and how you read encounters when "survive" becomes a shared responsibility instead of a solo pressure cooker.
No Rest for the Wicked's milestone announcement also hints at a longer runway. Public celebration posts like the Wicked Game tweet announcing the 1 million copies sold milestone help underline that this isn't a quiet win—it's a moment the team wants to amplify while players are already paying attention to the co-op drop. If you've been waiting for a good entry point, updates like this tend to be the best time to jump in: the community is active, guides get refreshed, and the learning curve feels less lonely when everyone's experimenting with the same new systems.
Arknights: Endfield launches on January 22, 2026, across PC, PlayStation 5, iOS, and Android. The date is now official, and the rollout is coming with an unusually stacked set of launch incentives and quality-of-life features designed to reduce friction for new players. For the broadest "what is this game and what's the vibe?" overview, PlayStation's Arknights: Endfield Worldwide Release Trailer positions Endfield as a sleek sci-fi successor with modern presentation and a more front-facing action identity—something that should make it more discoverable to players who never touched the original Arknights. Even if you're not typically into gacha-adjacent ecosystems, the marketing angle here is clear: fast onboarding, high spectacle, and enough comfort features to keep the early hours from feeling like homework.
Arknights: Endfield's launch rewards and platform features are targeting day-one retention. During the official Arknights: Endfield Release Special Program (Full Subtitles), the developers detailed major bonuses including up to 135 free pulls, a free 6-star operator named Ardelia, and gameplay hooks like automated base building plus a new social hub ship that adds a communal "home base" rhythm. The technical checklist is equally deliberate: PC players get a 120 FPS option with DLSS, while mobile users have full controller support, both of which make a tangible difference in how responsive combat and exploration feel. For download planning, the simplest approach is to be ready on January 22, 2026: install through your platform storefront (PC storefront listing when it goes live, PlayStation Store on PS5, and the App Store/Google Play on mobile), and make sure your storage space and controller pairing (if you're on mobile) are sorted before you hit download.
