Amazon Games is winding down active content support for New World: Aeternum amid division layoffs and wider parent-company job cuts. Season 10 and the Nighthaven update will serve as the final content releases for PC and consoles. Players can still purchase the game and PlayStation Plus Extra and Premium subscribers retain access until further notice, and the Nighthaven expansion is being made free. The company will keep servers running through 2026 and has pledged to provide at least six months' notice before changes that affect playability. Amazon will dial back work on big-budget MMOs, and the fate of a planned Lord of the Rings MMO is unclear.
