Casual game marketplace Legacy Games says it will close its online store on December 31, 2026. Multiple outlets report that the company’s launcher is also due to be shut down, leaving players without access to purchased titles through its platform.
Reporting highlights a dispute between marketing and what users can ultimately do with their purchases. Kotaku and VGC note that Legacy Games previously used a “yours to keep forever” style message, but the shutdown will affect players’ ability to re-download and install games after a cutoff date. VGC specifically states that after February 2027, users will no longer be able to download or install purchased games.
Across the coverage, the main points are the closure date for the store and the end of continued access to game files via the platform. Details focus on how purchasing behavior changes for consumers once the store and launcher are offline, with outlets emphasizing that “keep forever” messaging does not translate into indefinite downloads.
