New Steam Game Will Soon Be Unplayable Forever

a fairly new Steam The release will soon be delisted. personal computer digital showcase and forever unplayable. The announcement comes from Konami, the game’s publisher and the company best known for games and series like solid metal gear, Silent Hill, bombardierY castlevania. That being said, for fans of its iconic series, it’s thankfully not a game from any of these famous and in some cases dormant IPs. Rather, the game in question is a smaller release called vision of crimetitle developed and published by Konami, and which has just been released on April 14, 2022.

That being said, the game never managed to make much of a splash, despite being received quite warmly by those who played it, or at least that’s what Steam User Review’s “Very Positive” score bragging about the game suggests. However, making a splash is much more important than user review scores, especially when dealing with an online game that costs extra money to maintain after launch and therefore requires an active player base. To this end, it should perhaps come as no surprise that its online service will end on May 1. And once this happens, not only will the game no longer be available to purchase, but it will no longer be playable.

“Thank you for playing Crimesight” the communiqué begins. “This service has continued to function with the support of many users since its launch in April 2022, but due to various circumstances, we have decided to terminate the service on Monday, May 01, 2023 at 00:00 PDT. Sale has ended of Bundles on Monday, January 30, 2023 at 00:00 PST. Sales of the Standard and Deluxe editions will end on Monday, February 27, 2023 at 21:00 PST. Online battles will not be available after end of the service. In addition, the game itself will not be able to play. Although the remaining time until the end of the service is limited, we hope you will enjoy it to the end.”

As you can see, Konami doesn’t dive into details as to why the game is being shut down, but surely it’s just a matter of the game no longer being a profitable endeavor since there are no licenses involved and therefore no licenses. expired involved. . With that being said, until May 1, the game is available to purchase and play. Despite its impending closure, it’s still not on sale, which means you’ll have to shell out more than $10 to play the game with a few months to live.
