我如何摆脱所有字符串中的这封信？

Question

I have a list of games and regions in my database and i messed a few up, They are missing the end bracket so most are named like Sonic The Hedgehog (E but the letter E will change to many different regions.

How can i get rid of just the single bracket and letters ? It is always the last part of my string if that helps.

Thanks

Using preg_replace:

$str = preg_replace('/\([^)]$/', '', $str);

This will replace a left parenthesis which is followed by any character other than right parenthesis at the end of an input with empty string.
