Developers Monkey Moon and BlackMuffin Studio have announced that the PlayStation 4 version of noire game, Night Call, has been cancelled due to poor sales on other platforms.
In a statement on Twitter, the companies apologized to fans and said that they can’t afford to release the game on the PS4. Night Call is currently available on the Xbox One, Nintendo Switch, and PC.
Dear Playstation players, we’re super sorry to announce that the PS4 version of Night Call is officially cancelled. Given that the game didn’t sell quite well on other platforms + issues we encountered with our porting partners we won’t be able to deliver Night Call on PS4.

Please note that we’re probably as disappointed as you are. But we just can’t afford it.

When a follower pointed out that a number of Night Call‘s Xbox achievements are glitched and suggested that the poor sales are a result of technical problems, the game’s official Twitter account reiterated that its having issues with its porting partners.
“That also explains why the achievements have been fixed a long time ago on PC but other versions have never been patched,” said the studios. “We’re doing our best to patch other versions and especially Xbox. Sorry for the delay.”
A number of users have since purchased Night Call to support the development teams but we doubt that’ll make a difference. The game is published by Raw Fury.
