Dreams

Dreams, PlayStation’s ambitious game-creation toolkit, will no longer receive regular updates after September 1, developer Media Molecule announced in an April 11 blog post. This doesn’t necessarily mean the game is dead. The studio confirmed that Dreams will remain playable after September 1, with folks still able to make and share their creations in the game for the foreseeable future. However, Media Molecule clarified that it wants to put its energy into “an exciting new project” that has yet to be disclosed. As such, new events and updates for Dreams are over, and a May 22 server migration will limit storage for in-game content to just 5GB, which will effectively make preserving files a hassle as you’ll need to be intentional about what you save. This is especially true since Media Molecule is removing Dream’s archival feature as well. Here’s a detailed breakdown of everything that’s changing in Dreams. It may linger for a time, but I’m thinking it’s time to pour one out for Sony’s fanciful creation toolkit.
