No Refunds After Aliens: Fireteam Elite Cloud Version Shut Down on Switch - IGN Daily Fix

In today's Daily Fix:The cloud servers for Aliens: Fireteam Elite have been shut down, and Switch players who purchased the game no longer have access to it. Cloud versions need to be stored onto servers in order to run, and when gamers "buy" a copy, they're only buying a license to access the game, not to own the game in perpetuity. The shutdown and lack of any kind of refund or discount for the sequel have subsequently shined more light on Sony's decision to discontinue manufacturing physical game discs in 2028. In other news, Marvel's Spider-Man 2 for PS5 and Steam saw a surge in sales and player counts since the release of Spider-Man: Brand New Day in theaters over a week ago. And finally, No Man's Sky is celebrating 10 years, and a comeback story of sorts since the game's disasterous launch in 2016. A new free content update, Cosmos, was also announced.
