“We want to express our deepest gratitude to our players for their unwavering passion. Crafting the world of Aeternum alongside this community has been a privilege,” the developers shared in an official statement. “While saying goodbye is difficult, we are honored to have shared this journey with you all.”

The team continued, “It has been a joy to evolve this adventure with you. We look forward to one final year together, ensuring this story receives a farewell befitting a legendary hero. From everyone on the team, thank you for making this world your own.”

The news has sent ripples through the gaming community. Twitch personality Towelliee noted on social media that the game effectively “got nuked,” adding that “no game deserves this” kind of sudden end.

As the sun sets on Amazon’s MMO, industry veterans are already looking ahead. The co-creator of League of Legends and Riot Games co-founder has issued a call for “star developers” from the New World team, noting they are always searching for “S-tier talent” to join their ranks.
