While Season 10 will kick off as planned across all other platforms on March 18, 2026, the game will be retired from the only last-gen system, PS4, at that time to allow the team to "focus our support on current generation hardware."

While sometimes players can keep playing on discontinued software for a limited time, in this instance it appears the PS4 game will stop responding completely on the deadline.
