And there it is: Highguard is shutting down next week

One much update volition driblet earlier it does

The supra header volition not beryllium a peculiarly astonishing one, but conscionable to marque definite it's perfectly clear, developer Wildlight person confirmed that their raid shooter Highguard volition beryllium closing its servers from adjacent week, March 12th. The squad confirmed arsenic overmuch successful a station shared to the game's authoritative Twitter account, wherever it went into (very little) item astir what's next.

Player numbers precise overmuch are not thing worthy considering successful the wellness oregon adjacent reporting of a game, but I'll notation it present each the aforesaid arsenic it's successful this announcement post: much than 2 cardinal radical played Highguard, a fig that should beryllium impressive, but is indicative of the information that you tin person a city's worthy of radical playing and inactive not survive. If that isn't capable for the suits, what is?

"Despite the passionateness and hard enactment of our team, we person not been capable to physique a sustainable subordinate basal to enactment the crippled agelong term," the station explains. "Servers volition stay online until March 12th. We anticipation you’ll leap successful with america 1 much clip to amusement your enactment and get those last large matches successful portion we inactive can."

While the crippled volition beryllium unplayable travel adjacent week's end, determination is really 1 much update planned for release, with the volition to merchandise it contiguous earliest, time greeting (presumably US time) latest. It'll travel with a caller Warden, a caller weapon, relationship level progression, and accomplishment trees. None of this volition beryllium disposable for precise long, obviously, but I tin lone ideate the remaining unit members (a reminder that astir of the squad was laid disconnected successful February) don't privation their enactment to spell to waste.

It'll astir apt beryllium a portion earlier we get a implicit representation of what led to Highguard's demise, but a caller study that spoke with erstwhile unit did suggest the "hubris" of Wildlight's enactment is portion of it.

As it stands, there's nary connection from Wildlight arsenic to the aboriginal of the workplace itself. I anticipation those inactive determination are capable to onshore comfortably connected their feet, immoderate is next.
