Update: 2025-10-29
Description
**Summary:**Amazon Games announces major layoffs and a shift in their game development strategy, pulling back from making first-party, triple-A games, including MMOs. New World: Aeternum, a beloved title with a dedicated player base, is affected, with no new content drops after Season Ten and the Nighthaven update. The game's servers will remain up until 2026, but the future is uncertain, leaving players to wonder how much longer it's worth staying in the MMO without a clear horizon.
