Fae Farm PC Online Co-op to Shut Down September 10 as Phoenix Labs Website Goes Dark

Phoenix Labs’ site outage signals the loss of its backend services, raising doubts about online play beyond PC.

Overview

  • Phoenix Labs announced on its Steam page that Fae Farm’s PC online co-op will go offline on September 10, 2025 at 23:59 PT, after which the game will be restricted to offline single-player and receive no future updates.
  • The developer’s official website (phxlabs.ca) is returning a “site not found” error, suggesting Phoenix Labs has shuttered its backend services following mass layoffs earlier this year.
  • Fae Farm has already been removed from the Epic Games Store, with its storefront page returning a 404 error and no indication of a return.
  • Online play on PC relies on Phoenix Labs accounts and server infrastructure, which appear to be offline and are likely the cause of the multiplayer shutdown.
  • Console storefronts have not issued notices yet, leaving PlayStation and Xbox online support in limbo, while Nintendo Switch users can still access local LAN wireless co-op.
