PS5’s Destruction AllStars Delisted, Servers Officially Disabled Without Notice

Destruction AllStars has an odd history: its online servers stopped working in 2024, but Sony has never publicly confirmed this.

Up until today, the game was still available, but it’s now completely disabled and removed from the PlayStation Store without any warning. If you already purchased the game, you’ll still be able to play the Arcade Mode.

A recent post on the game’s news feed, noticed by Radec, announced that players can still use their in-game currency, Destruction Points, until November 25th. This likely satisfies Sony’s requirement of providing six months’ notice, despite the game being effectively unplayable online for a long time.

Fans have been discussing this mystery on a PSNProfiles thread since 2024, and we finally have an answer.

I remember checking out this game when the PS5 first came out – it was made by Lucid. They were trying the ‘live service’ thing pretty early on, but honestly, it just didn’t click with enough players and faded away.

The team attempted to revamp the game’s title several times, but it never managed to attract and keep a dedicated player base. It’s not unexpected that Sony decided to discontinue it, though they could have handled the announcement much more effectively.

As a fan, it’s really disappointing to hear the servers are going down. It basically means getting the Platinum Trophy is impossible now, and I don’t think we’ll see an update to fix the trophies that rely on those servers. It’s a shame!

This game had promise, but PlayStation has realized throughout this console generation that the online gaming market is very competitive. Simply releasing an average game isn’t enough to attract and keep players.
