Dan Reynolds and Night Street Games pause Last Flag console plans after weak PC launch
Last Flag, co-created by Imagine Dragons singer Dan Reynolds, has canceled its console plans after a weak PC launch. Night Street Games says support will continue through patches and community-focused features, but new content development has ended for now.
Last Flag, the online multiplayer game co-created by Imagine Dragons frontman Dan Reynolds, will no longer move forward with a planned console release after low player numbers on PC.
The game was announced in 2025 and launched last month on Steam and the Epic Games Store. Developed by Night Street Games, the studio Reynolds co-founded with his brother Mac Reynolds, Last Flag is built around a capture-the-flag format. Dan Reynolds also contributed original music with Imagine Dragons guitarist Wayne Sermon, songwriter JT Daly, and singer Marcos Issaak.
Despite promotion across Imagine Dragons’ social channels, the game has struggled to retain players. According to SteamDB figures cited this week, Last Flag reached a peak of 558 concurrent players on Steam, with a 24-hour peak of 48 and single-digit players online at the time of reporting.
In a message posted to the game’s official Discord server and shared by Knoebel on X, Mac Reynolds said the team cannot currently fund broader development.
“If you’ve been following the Steam charts, you already know that Last Flag has been unable to find the audience it needs to give all of you the experience you deserve,”
he wrote, adding that additional development, including console, is now unlikely beyond upcoming patches.

Mac Reynolds said the game will remain online and described a shift in priorities toward replayability and community-led play. In a Steam update, the studio said it plans to focus on persistent lobbies and custom rule sets influenced by titles including GoldenEye, Team Fortress 2, and Super Smash Bros.
The team said it is not shutting the project down, but new content plans have ended for now.
Separately, the official Call of Duty X account has confirmed that the 2026 Call of Duty release will not launch on PlayStation 4 or Xbox One, marking the first time in 13 years the series skips both platforms.
