Beloved PS4 Game Being Delisted, Multiplayer Being Shut Down
PS4 game Project Cars 3 being delisted 5 years after launch
In a notice on the game's PS Store page, Bandai Namco announced that Project Cars 3 will be pulled from sale on August 24. All those who purchased the game or any of its DLC prior to this date will continue to have access.
As for multiplayer, Project Cars 3 servers will remain live until February 24, 2026. Trophy hunters have ample time to work towards the game's online trophies.
Project Cars hasn't seen a new entry since its third game in 2020. The series made its debut in 2015, and a second game followed in 2017. The franchise has been a commercial success for Bandai Namco, but Project Cars 3 was admittedly the weakest entry and least favorably reviewed.
Despite this, Project Cars 3 won the 'Best Simulation Game' award at Gamescom 2020, and enjoyed quite an enthusiast following.

Battlefield 6 promises massive battles across cityscapes that are destructible and filled with tanks, helicopters and fighter jets that players can use. The sequel is bringing back the class system, with players choosing either Assault, Engineer, Support and Recon. Each class offers distinct weapons and roles to carry out. For multiplayer, classic Battlefield modes such as Conquest, Breakthrough, Rush, Team Deathmatch and Domination are returning.

Battlefield 6's Game-Changing Multiplayer and More Revealed During Blockbuster Global Event
Battlefield 6 Launches October 10 with Jaw-Dropping Multiplayer Maps and Modes, Exhilarating Single Player Campaign, the Evolution of Portal, and Much More. Battlefield's Biggest Ever Open Beta Begins In August LOS ANGELES, July 31, 2025--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Today, during a live global multiplayer reveal event, Electronic Arts (NASDAQ: EA) and Battlefield Studios unveiled Battlefield 6™, the ultimate all-out warfare experience. Launching on October 10, Battlefield 6 is available on PlayStation®5, Xbox Series X/S, and PC (Steam™, EA App, Epic Games Store). During the blockbuster event, Battlefield Studios provided a first look at new and returning multiplayer modes, a tantalizing sneak peek of the global scale blockbuster Single Player campaign and of course the evolution of Battlefield Portal. BATTLEFIELD 6 OFFICIAL MULTIPLAYER GAMEPLAY TRAILER The year is 2027. The world is on the edge of chaos. After a high-profile assassination shocks the world, major European countries have left NATO, while the US and its allies grapple with the fallout. A massive private military corporation unafraid to cross lines, with deep pockets and the latest tech, looks to fill the power vacuum. This army is PAX ARMATA. What's left of NATO is in tatters, wounded and battered. This is the world of Battlefield 6. Battlefield 6 introduces a host of new features, including the all-new Kinesthetic Combat System, which brings enhancements to movement and gunplay. This gives players an unprecedented level of mobility, offering new tactical options such as Drag and Revive to pull teammates out of danger and back from the brink, and mounting weapons on walls to reduce recoil. The iconic class system returns better than ever, with Assault, Recon, Support, and Engineer, empowering players to define their role on the battlefield. The four roles have been enhanced, designed to empower players to push their team towards victory, each with class-specific gadgets, signature weapons and dedicated training. Destruction also returns, but enhanced to offer an unparalleled level of freedom, letting players transform the combat zone, to create new paths, flank enemies and dominate the battle. Battlefield 6 will launch with a robust package of multiplayer modes and maps, taking the fight around the world from Egypt, to Gibraltar and the streets of New York. Each map features multiple combat zones, hand-crafted and tailored to suit specific modes, ensuring each fight is designed to compliment the player experience and provide a variety of play options. Fan favorite multiplayer modes return in Battlefield 6, with classic staples making an appearance, including Conquest, Breakthrough, and Rush. Players will also experience a host of fast-paced and intense first-person shooter staples, including Team Deathmatch, Squad Deathmatch, Domination and King of the Hill. While a brand new mode called Escalation sees two teams fight to capture strategic control points. "We knew when we set out to create the future of Battlefield, we had to nail the fundamentals of what players have loved about the series for more than 20 years," said Byron Beede, Senior Vice President & General Manager of Battlefield. "We're back in our all-out warfare playground, with four world-class teams developing the game as a single squad known as Battlefield Studios. Criterion, DICE, Motive, and Ripple Effect have put their heart and soul into this next Battlefield and we're thrilled to have shared our first look with you today and can't wait to see you playing next weekend during the Open Beta." Battlefield 6 also launches with an all-new and improved iteration of Portal – the creative toolset that lets you redraw the lines of war. Portal is more powerful and streamlined than ever before, giving players brand new tools to create completely unique content called Community Experiences. Ambitious post-launch support will continue to add more modes, maps, weapons, and other features to the game on a consistent basis. "I've worked on a lot of titles over the years and can confidently say that Battlefield 6 is something special," said Vince Zampella, Executive Vice President. "We can't wait to show more of Battlefield 6's intense tactical combat and epic warfare in the months to come, leading up to its release on October 10." Battlefield's biggest Open Beta ever goes LIVE for two weekends from August 9 through August 10 and from August 14 through 17. Fans will have the chance to join the Open Beta two days early on August 7, by watching some of their favorite streamers play the game.

Battlefield 6's multiplayer looks like a true return to form for the franchise
Battlefield 6 just gave us our first look at its multiplayer, and all we can say is: buckle up, soldier. The game is set in the near future (a little too close for comfort, honestly) of 2027, where NATO has all but crumbled. All of the fan-favorite multiplayer modes like Conquest, Rush, and Breakthrough are back, but the end of the reveal strongly teased a battle royale mode — although it's worth noting it wasn't technically confirmed. The release date was also confirmed for October 10, and that says quite a lot about EA's faith in the latest entry in the Battlefield franchise. With Call of Duty: Black Ops 7 launching in November, Battlefield 6 is shaping up to be quite the title if the team is confident enough to go nearly head-to-head with CoD. Recommended Videos Here's what you need to know. The game will feature nine maps at launch, including a remake of Operation Firestorm from Battlefield 3. The nine maps are a mix of wide-open battlefields ideal for Conquest mode, as well as closer-range maps like Gibraltar. The trailer showed a map set in New York City, with the Brooklyn Bridge prominent in the background. The old class system is also making a welcome comeback. Once again, you'll take on the role of Recon, Assault, Engineer, and Support depending on your team's current need in the fight. Players will step into the shoes of specific characters in the single-player mode, but it doesn't seem (at least from what we've seen so far) that Specialists from Battlefield 2042 is coming back. The classes have also seen a few changes, such as the Support class gaining the ability to pull injured players behind cover and out of the line of fire. The graphics have obviously seen a solid upgrade, and though the trailer didn't show hit markers or score indicators, don't worry. They must have been removed for cinematic reasons, because the live gameplay after the initial presentation looked just like the battlefield you know and love. Finally, the game will be restricted to 64-player battles. The franchise tried out 128-player battles in Battlefield 2042, but it was largely unpopular, and it didn't take long before custom playlists tended to feature strictly 64-player lobbies. DICE seems to have learned from its mistakes, although the door for larger maps remains open through Battlefield Labs. Portal also makes an appearance, allowing players to create custom game modes and experiences with insane objectives that look like they're taken straight from the Halo custom game manual. If you're interested to play ahead of time — and you're already signed up for Battlefield Labs — you can take part in a public beta starting August 7 and 8. If you aren't already signed up, the beta will run between August 9 and 10 and then again from August 14-17. It's a great chance to test the waters before the game officially launches this October.
