Overview
- Season 10’s Nighthaven update is the final content release for New World: Aeternum on PC and consoles, with no further updates planned.
- Amazon says servers will operate through 2026 and promises at least six months’ notice before any change that affects playability.
- The Nighthaven release is free for all players and Rise of the Angry Earth is free on PC, with ongoing bug fixes, quality‑of‑life work, world bosses and bonus weeks as holiday events are canceled.
- The game remains purchasable, in‑game currency stays on sale, and PlayStation Plus access continues until further notice, with reports indicating refunds are not planned.
- The move follows layoffs reported at roughly 14,000 across Amazon and a strategic shift toward Luna and AI‑focused or casual projects, while players respond with petitions, negative Steam reviews and refund attempts reported by community sites.
