Highguard Becomes Latest Multiplayer Game to Die
Wildlight Entertainment announced that its raid shooter Highguard will be shut down on March 12th, less than two months after its January 26th release. The studio cited an inability to build a sustainable player base, with Tencent reportedly pulling funding. Despite over 2 million players trying the game and a peak of 97,000 concurrent players at launch, Highguard failed to retain its audience. An update with new content will be released before the servers go offline.
