Today, Robocraft 2 enthusiasts were hit with disappointing news. The game‘s creator, Freejam, notified gamers through Discord that the studio is winding down. The declaration (detailed on Games Industry) states “the current economic landscape and the server upkeep for a game akin to RC2” rendered the project untenable. Consequently, Robocraft 2, its original version, and Cardlife are all heading for discontinuation. This surprising news arrives one year post the publisher declared intentions to remodel the game.
In the same message, it’s mentioned how the studio “served as a family” and expresses gratitude towards its fan base for their “captions and insights” that “continually propelled [them] forward.” Regretfully, systematic shutdowns and game discontinuation happen quite often. While fans were anticipating a miracle, it seems they had seen this coming. With optimism, those affected by the closure will secure new employment shortly.
