• 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.

Steams most wishlisted game that had an intricate story of weird events and eventually suffered an early demise after a chaotic release? You bet.

How is it even most wishlists if not by using bots tho like I get I don't pay attention to what's new much but I literally never heard of the game until I heard of the flop

I've discovered this in my own wishlist a few weeks ago. Must've been that "this looks interesting, let's get back to it later" late night steam store browsing, because I do not remember putting it there.
