Despite more than $60 million in investments, Shroud-backed FPS Spectre Divide and its dev are shutting down after the first season failed "to cover day-to-day costs"

FPS Spectre Divide is the next live service shooter to face an imminent shutdown.

Every few months, I find out about another live service game via an announcement of its closure - and Spectre Divide is next in line. Mountaintop Studios today announced that the 3v3 tactical shooter, made in the Counter-Strike and Valorant mold, will go offline in the next 30 days and the indie developer itself will also close its doors after failing to attract a sustainable playerbase. In-game purchases made since Season 1 went live will be refunded, thankfully, while new purchases are going to be entirely disabled.
