Crucible will be shut down just months after its official release on May 20, 2020.
Amazon’s free-to-play group shooter Crucible is closing down on November 9, 2020, only months after its official dispatch on May 20, 2020. The Crucible group shared their last developer update and talked about what led to the choice after the group pulled the game back to Closed Beta in July.
The team made top-notch highlights that were intended to improve the player experience and, except for custom games (which are scheduled to show up in the coming days), it finished them all. Be that as it may, after delivery those highlights and assessing the criticism from fans, matched with the information gathered, the troublesome decision to suspend improvement was made.
“That evaluation led us to a difficult decision: we’ll be discontinuing development on Crucible,” The Crucible team’s statement read. “We very much appreciate the way that our fans have rallied around our efforts, and we’ve loved seeing your responses to the changes we’ve made over the last few months, but ultimately we didn’t see a healthy, sustainable future ahead of Crucible. We’ll be transitioning our team to focus on New World and other upcoming projects from Amazon Games.”
For fans who played Crucible and made buys, full discounts will be given, and more data can be found on its help page. Credit buys will likewise be crippled right away. In the following hard weeks, Crucible will have a last playtest and network festivity, both in-game and on the official Discord. After those occasions, matchmaking will be debilitated.
Custom Games will even now live on until “early afternoon PST on Monday, November 9, 2020.” After that, the doors to the Crucible will be shut for acceptable.
