The only thing we know is that on March 15, 2024, they will disappear completely. Just like that.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>&#8220;We are contacting you to let you know that Dead and Buried will no longer be available from Friday, March 15, 2024. <strong>You can continue hunting ghosts and other creatures on your Rift, Rift S, or <a href=\"https:\/\/en.softonic.com\/articles\/the-meta-quest-2-and-pro-improves-their-performance-this-is-the-new-update?ex=RAMP-1114.2\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Quest<\/a> (via link) until 11:59 PM on that date.&#8221;<\/strong> The sequel to the Old West shooting game and the virtual pet Bogo have also received similar messages.
