Latest News About Wordle New York Times

Here’s the latest I can share about Wordle and The New York Times.

• The Wordle game was acquired by The New York Times in January 2022. The Times stated the purchase was in the low seven figures and that Wordle would remain free to play for both new and existing players when it moves to the NYT platform, with no changes to gameplay.[1]
• Since the acquisition, Wordle has continued to be hosted as part of The New York Times Games, and NYT has integrated Wordle into its broader suite of daily puzzle offerings, including making Wordle playable in the NYT Crossword app on iOS and Android, while preserving streaks and player data for many users.[10][1]
• Some fans reacted to changes under NYT ownership, including shifts in difficulty perception and feature adjustments such as the Wordle Archive, which NYT had instructed to be taken down, prompting discussions about access to past puzzles.[2][3]

If you’d like, I can pull up a brief chronology of notable Wordle events under NYT ownership with dates and short summaries, or summarize how Wordle is currently accessed (web vs. NYT Games app) along with any known limitations or pricing considerations. Please tell me which you prefer.
