Lawbreakers Game

by

Aug 04, 2017  LawBreakers is far from being a bad multiplayer FPS. It's a fun game with some good ideas, that can entertain you a lot. But there's nothing in it that feels really surprising or more appealing to players that already have plenty of choices in the genre. All this publication's reviews.

Update: Unfortunately, the free-to-play transition isn't a sign that Nexon is hoping to revive LawBreakers, but simply a way to soften the blow of its looming closure. 'In light of the unfortunate news regarding Boss Key Productions shutting down, we regret to announce that we will be sunsetting our support of LawBreakers on September 14, 2018 as we are not able to operate the game,' Nexon said.' Our servers will remain open until then and the game will be made free-to-play on Steam for all players effective immediately. Please note that any and all new in-game purchases will also be disabled and we will not be able to accept any refund requests.' Original story:With no fanfare, or even the slightest indication at all that it was going to happen, Boss Key Studio's arena FPS has gone free-to-play Steam.The change is unexpected in part because studio founder Cliff Bleszinski last month.

But while that spelled the end of Radical Heights, LawBreakers, which is published by Nexon, can keep the lights on for as long as it likes. (Except, as now noted above, it's not going to.)Nexon hasn't commented on the change as of yet but it wouldn't be unreasonable for it to try rebuilding LawBreakers as a free-to-play title. It's a complete game, after all, and let's not forget it was originally intended to be free-to-play in the first place. The changeover to premium pricing that it's not directly relevant to the current situation, but you can imagine the recriminations that will fly if Nexon is able to make this work.I've reached out to Nexon to ask about the change and will update if I receive a reply.

In the meantime, if you've been waiting for a no-risk opportunity to try LawBreakers (especially now that there might be a few people playing it),.

This article focuses primarily on what caused it to flop so fast and so horribly.LawBreakers was an first-person shooter developed by Boss Key Productions and published by Nexon.The game was released on August 8, 2017 and was 'written off' by the publisher in early 2018 due to the game flopping horribly and the servers were shut down in September 2018.: The game was released at a time when online first-person shooters were the most popular genre in gaming. LawBreakers received relatively positive reviews, however interest in the game was very minimal, with only around 7500 players participating in the open Betas.

At launch the game had a very small player base of only about 3000 concurrent players at its peak, which was significantly smaller than the Betas. The small amount of players and all the problems above caused fewer and fewer people to try the game and the active players to drop at a very fast rate. Less than three months after launch, the player base was reduced to 10 concurrent players.The game sold terribly and was declared dead by its publisher less than 6 months after launch due to the unsustainable small player base that dried out too quickly. Publisher Nexon kept defending the game and its failure by once saying that the game is doing much better on PS4 but no evidence was ever given to back up that claim. Nexon later tried to blame the failure of LawBreakers on the success of. This was ridiculed by most people because PUBG wasn't even officially released at the time.On April 2018, Boss Key Productions announced that they'd be 'moving on' from the game and would no longer develop more content for it. One month later, Boss Key closed down, eliminating any chance for LawBreakers to be revived.

Shortly after that Nexon announced that they would shut down the servers, but the game was made free-to-play until then. Serial cleaner wiki. Player count still remained low despite the game being made free-to-play.In 14th September 2018, servers for LawBreakers officially shut down and it was removed from digital stores.
