PlayStation Online Servers Shut Down August for Tearaway and PS3 Store Closes Latin America

Players should check the trophy lists for Tearaway before August 13 and complete any requirements involving online functions. For Tearaway, the server shutdown also means players will no longer be able to transfer or print paper molds unlocked during gameplay from the game's official website. In contrast, the free-to-play title Let It Die will have its servers shut down at the end of August. However, the publisher has announced plans to offer an offline version of the game through a one-time purchase, ensuring full content preservation for players without internet access.

For other regions, the PS3 and PS Vita stores will remain active until July 2027.
