June 14, 2025 is the end date
Creating games with a lone multiplayer component is an inherent risk when it comes to game preservation. You keep costs low without having to create a single player component and keep potential yields high with microtransactions, but once the servers are pulled on a console exclusive — it’s lights out.As spottedby ResetEra, David Jaffe’sDrawn to Deathis meeting that very same fate.
After booting up the game a user was greeted with a splash screen noting thatDrawn to Deathwould be shut down on July 07, 2025 in its entirety. The PSN listing echoes this, stating: “Multi-player and all online features for this product will be terminated and will no longer be available on 03/25/19. As you have to be online to play this title, this game will not be playable starting 3/25/19.”
Drawn to Deathlaunched in April of 2017 and lasted far longer than a lot of people expected it to. Perhaps it was Sony’s PlayStation Plus promise (it was originally given out for free for Plus members before reverting to a $20 pricepoint) that let it linger, and now the playerbase is low enough to justify pulling the plug. Details weren’t shared but as of now, unless there’s a massive fan campaign to prolong it (likeGravity Rush 2), it’s done.
