ABP Shut Down
With the closure of RealTime Worlds (who filed bankruptcy a month or so ago), the recently released MMO, APB, has been shut down.
Post on the
game's forum:
"APB has been a fantastic journey, but unfortunately that journey has come to a premature end. Today we are sad to announce that despite everyone’s best efforts to keep the service running; APB is coming to a close. It’s been a pleasure working on APB and with all its players. Together we were building an absolutely amazing game, and for that, we thank you. You guys are awesome!
From all of the Realtime World staff we thank you for your continued support.
The servers are still up, so join the party and say goodbye!
- Ben ‘APBMonkey’ Bateman (Community Officer)
It was announced via
Twitter that the game is now free to play until the servers are shut off.
Despite interest from dozens of parties willing to buy the rights to the game, none of them were comfortable suitors, according to
GamesIndustry. The game is expected to be shut down within the next 24 hours.
