• Controversial game The Day Before will have servers shut down in January 2024, just 45 days after its troubled launch.

• Developer Fntastic has closed down and the entire project will cease to exist, leaving players unable to purchase or play the game.

• Steam will automatically refund remaining players and Mytona, the investor, has been collaborating with Steam to facilitate refunds for all purchasers.
