Amazon Games has canned its failed battle royale King of Meat<\/u><\/a>, following its dismal Steam performance that only ever saw a few hundred people playing.<\/p>\n

Although the game only released in October \u2014 that’s just four months ago \u2014 developer Glowmade has confirmed the game will be formally sunsetted on April 9, 2026, after which time it will no longer be playable. All players are invited to apply for a refund via the store of the platform they bought it on (Steam, PlayStation Store, etc.), including any premium currency \u2014 called Stamps in this case \u2014 purchased, too.<\/p>\n

<\/section>\n

Amazon had reportedly aimed for a player count in the hundreds of thousands for King of Meat, which it spent big on promoting via The Game Awards and a collaboration with YouTube star MrBeast.<\/p>\n

“Despite the creativity and innovation Glowmade brought to King of Meat, the game has unfortunately not found the audience we hoped for,” the team wrote<\/u><\/a>. “As a result, we have made the difficult decision to conclude our investment in the game, and King of Meat’s servers will close on April 9, 2026. Players will be able to access and play all existing content until then, so we encourage you to enjoy your remaining time in the game with your fellow Contenders.<\/p>\n

“We want to sincerely thank every player who supported King of Meat and the wonderful community that formed around it. Your enthusiasm, imagination, and feedback have meant the world to us and to the team at Glowmade. We’re grateful for Glowmade\u2019 s partnership and passion throughout this journey and wish them continued success in the future.”<\/p>\n

Perhaps unsurprisingly, the team stressed that, from this point on, there are no further content updates, balance changes, or bug fixes planned for King of Meat during this sunset period, and the game \u2014 and the currency for it \u2014 can no longer be purchased.<\/p>\n

It follows the similarly brutal action of Riot Games last week when, less than a month after the launch of its free-to-play 2v2 tag-team fighting game, 2XKO<\/u><\/a>, Riot announced it was scaling back its development team.<\/u><\/a> Admitting the news was “difficult to share,” producer Tom Cannon said that despite securing a “passionate core audience,” the new game “hasn’t reached the level needed to support a team of this size long term.”<\/p>\n
