Auto Chess shutting down on PlayStation 4 and 5 on June 1st

Quietly announced last November 29th on Twitter and the PlayStation Store, Dragonest and Chengdu Longyuan Network Technology confirmed that Auto Chess for PlayStation 4 and 5 will be shutting down on June 1st of this year. Like LotsaNintendo pointed out in their submission to the site, it seems almost everyone missed this news last winter.

Unfortunately, the first milestone of their announcement is coming up in just two days on March 1st when you’ll be unable to download the game or tie it to a Dragonest account and take your progress to the mobile versions. If you made any purchases or progress in the PlayStation versions then right now is the time to make sure your accounts are linked. The full announcement has a few more details:

Thank you for playing Auto Chess PlayStation 4 and PlayStation 5 versions. There’s a regretted information that we have to inform you that we will remove Auto Chess from both PlayStation 4 and PlayStation 5 Stores.
