I'm surprised to see ED brought up. They gave up console players and won't even push token updates, like when they balanced engineers for PC players to reduce the grinding. Tried to get back into it but I guess it's now a legacy game and Frontier straight up bailed.
The game isn't shut down though. I can still buy their MTX stuff. That's got to count against them.
Yeah, they stopped updating the legacy PC client, too. I suspect it's in the same game world as your console, still alive and playable, but with no new content.
The new client is free, but also more resource-hungry; I guess they didn't have the budget to get it working on consoles.
