➀ Sony's console game Fairgame$ has been delayed from its initial 2025 release to 2026; ➁ The delay is attributed to Sony's desire to give the game more development time and avoid the fate of Concord; ➂ The game was initially announced as part of Sony's live-service push from a couple of years ago.

1. Steve Sinclair, CEO of Digital Extremes, attributes the failure of many live-service games to publishers' short-term financial perspectives and premature abandonment of projects. 2. He emphasizes the importance of persistence and long-term support for live-service games to build and maintain a community. 3. Warframe, a successful live-service game, has been running for over 11 years and continues to grow its audience, hosting annual fan conventions since 2016.
