PS5 Console Exclusive Game Officially Shuts Down in 24 Hours and Will Be Forever Unplayable

A game that was released exclusively for PlayStation 5 in 2022 will no longer be playable on both PS5 and PC in less than 24 hours. Currently, all PS5 owners can play it for free, but in-game purchases have been disabled. With a rating of 4.10 out of 5 stars based on over 6,000 reviews, many players are expected to be disappointed when the game disappears.

In 2022, Sharkmob launched Vampire: The Masquerade – Bloodhunt, a free-to-play battle royale game, after a year of testing. Battle royale games were popular then, but their popularity has since faded. By 2026, most have disappeared, except for well-established titles like Fortnite. So, it’s not unexpected to see a battle royale game, even a good one, shutting down now.

Not Enough PS5 Users Playing It

The PS5 game is being shut down because too few people are playing it. The developers, Sharkmob, say it’s become too expensive to keep the game servers running and secure. Maintaining servers costs money, and if they aren’t properly maintained, they can create security problems that also cost money to fix.

The official announcement expressed gratitude for everyone who joined them, and hoped that the memories created in Prague – from its rooftops to its hidden streets – would be cherished as much by participants as they are by the organizers.

By 2026, many online games and even some single-player titles are disappearing due to shutdowns and licensing problems. Unfortunately, this game is highly unlikely to ever be available again, and will eventually be lost to time. However, it’s still playable for one more day, and you don’t need a PlayStation Plus subscription to enjoy it online because it’s free-to-play.
