Casual game marketplace Legacy Games to close online store this December

The Legacy Games store closure has two important dates for players: the online store will stop operating on December 31, 2026, and the company’s website and servers are scheduled to close on February 28, 2027. Players who have purchased or claimed games should check their libraries and download anything they want to keep before the final date.

Legacy Games store closure: key dates

  • December 31, 2026: The online store closes. Disc download codes will no longer be redeemable after this date, and points, rewards, and Hero Club memberships will end.
  • February 28, 2027: The website and servers close. This is the last day to download and install purchased games, including eligible games previously claimed through Amazon Luna.

These dates mark different stages of the shutdown. A code that has not been redeemed by the end of 2026 may become unusable, while players who already own games have until the end of February 2027 to download and install them.

What happens to games players already own?

Games that are downloaded and installed can continue to be played as long as they remain installed on the same device. However, after the servers close, players will not be able to re-download earlier purchases. If a game is deleted, it will no longer be available to download again through Legacy Games.

For that reason, check your account before February 28, 2027. Make a list of purchased titles you still want to play, then download and install them while the service is available. Confirm that each installation has completed before relying on it; an incomplete download may not be usable later.

What to do before the store shuts down

  1. Review your Legacy Games purchase history and identify games you want to keep.
  2. Redeem any unused disc download codes before December 31, 2026.
  3. Download and install owned games before February 28, 2027.
  4. Check your points, rewards, and Hero Club membership, as these will end when the store closes.
  5. If you claimed eligible free games through Amazon Luna, download them before the February deadline as well.

Installed games are tied to the device on which they remain installed, according to the company’s notice. The announcement does not promise that deleting, moving, or reinstalling a game will be possible after the shutdown, so avoid removing an installed title if you intend to keep playing it.

About Legacy Games

Founded in 1998, Legacy Games publishes hidden object games and other casual titles for PC, consoles, and mobile devices. Its online store launched in 2020 and offered more than 1,000 games, often sold in multi-game bundles. The company also distributed physical discs containing digital codes through Walmart stores and Amazon.

Legacy Games has not given a reason for the closure. It thanked customers for being part of the company’s history. For players, the practical priority is clear: the Legacy Games store closure means checking codes and rewards before December 31, 2026, and installing wanted games before February 28, 2027.
