Amazon expected this co-op party game to draw in 100,000+ active players, but it hit an all-time peak of just 320 on Steam and now it's closing for good just 6 months after it launched

Amazon announced today that King of Meat, one of the more disastrous outcomes of its ill-fated effort to be a big-time PC game publisher, is officially throwing in the towel and going away for good in April.

"As a result, we have made the difficult decision to conclude our investment in the game, and King of Meat's servers will close on April 9, 2026.
