Metro: Last Light Reduxis also a major loss. Seeing players explore a post-apocalyptic version of Russia where humans are confined to subway tunnels due to the heavy irradiation, this remaster of the secondMetrogame offers a story-focused campaign with widely-touted survival elements.Pathologic 2,a surreal cult-classic survival game, will also likely be missed, while terrain-based driving titleMudRunnerand sci-fi strategy gameAge of Wonders: Planetfallalso havesizeable fanbases too.
Rounding out the bunch,Naruto to Boruto: Shinobi Strikeris sure to be one that fans of the iconic anime series should jump on before it leaves, whileThe Turing Test, Ticket to Ride,andInfinifactoryare all worth a play before they’re taken away as well.
