• 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.

    Nope, no Kickstarter or obvious public funding before the early access “release”.

    There’s a chance some people weren’t able to get refunded but due to Steam’s refund policy I suspect most got their money back.

    If it was always intended to be a total scam and never release they’d likely have used their own launcher to bypass the Steam revenue share and refund policy.
