Delisting
505 Games announced on May 24th, 2024 that Memories of Mars would be removed from sale that same day and that its online multiplayer servers would shut down approximately one month later on June 25th.
We’ve been on an incredible journey since we launched back in early 2020, thanks to you, our incredible community. However, after 4 years, we have taken the difficult decision to sunset Memories of Mars, closing down online multiplayer servers on June 25th, 2024. In addition, Memories of Mars will no longer be available for purchase on all platforms, effective immediately.
For some of you, this news may not be a huge surprise, but we also understand for those still playing, this won’t be the update you wanted to hear. We want to take this opportunity to say a huge thank you for your support over the years. It means more than you know!
Take care,

The game’s PlayStation and Xbox store pages received a shorter message sharing the same news before the delisting. Though not outright stated, as the message implies the game did not receive any updates after 2020 and the decision to shut the game down likely came after years of dwindling active player counts.
About the Game
