Sony announced on the PlayStation Blog on Tuesday that the team-based first-person shooter would shut down on Sept. 6, just a fortnight after its launch on PS5 and PC. "However, while many qualities of the experience resonated with players, we also recognize that other aspects of the game and our initial launch didn’t land the way we’d intended," Ellis said. However, from minute one, fan reactions to the reveal were fairly muted — and a beta later in the summer didn't do much to ratchet up player enthusiasm.
