PLAY magazine, known as the last stronghold of PlayStation print media, has released its final issue. This signals the end of an era for the magazine, which has been an important source of PlayStation news, reviews, and features. It was created by a team of skilled writers and editors, many of whom came from other well-known gaming publications. The shutdown of PLAY reflects a larger trend in the media industry, where digital content is taking over traditional print media. Editor Oscar Taylor-Kent shared a farewell message that celebrates the magazine’s legacy and the contributions of its team through the years.

There it is. Felt a bit sick hovering over the 'post' button. But thanks so much to all the teams and contributors who have made OPM, PSM, and PLAY possible. And to everyone who read along! https://t.co/1i4yUREX23
