Future has announced the closure of UK gaming titles Xbox World and PSM3.
Final issues of the titles will be published next month when the company is expected to redeploy staff across its other titles.
Future bought Xbox World shortly after its 2003 launch by Computec Media. It launched PSM3 in 2000 (then known as PSM2) and has published more than 160 print editions.
The company said it decided to scrap the print titles as it looked to instead focus on digital.
