The Official PlayStation Magazine (OPM) UK has called it quits after 33 years of being in circulation, marking the end of an era. As reported by Video Games Chronicle, OPM was the last licensed magazine still in circulation following the closures of Official Nintendo Magazine in 2014 and Official Xbox Magazine in 2020. All three were published by Future.
In a press release, Future said that it will now publish a new (unlicensed) magazine for PlayStation gamers called PLAY, with the aim of going “farther and deeper than ever before into the world of PlayStation gaming.” Future didn’t say why it decided to pull the plug on OPM in favor of yet another PlayStation-focused magazine, but the press release alludes to Sony having a say in the decision to not renew the license.
And now no more official magazines are left. 1 May 2021
