Three Months of Early Access, PlanetSide Arena Closes Servers Next Month

PlanetSide Arena didn’t sell.

Announced a year ago with the promise of an epic 250 vs 250 battle, PlanetSide Arena trying to interbreed PUBG with sci-fi elements. But unfortunately, it seems that their efforts to dive into the battle royale genre are not as smooth as they thought.

We are now officially on the platform Tiktok! Follow our Tiktok account at @gamebrott.com to find various information and our other interesting video content.

This is explained by the Executive Producer franchise PlanetSide, Andy Sites of Daybreak Game Company, that PlanetSide Arena will soon close its early access service early next year. Precisely on January 10, 2020. Game made based on PlanetSide 2 It has very few players since its release on September 20 last. Make them inevitably have to close the server.

Along with the announcement, starting today they also stopped the distribution of the game’s DLC sales, and implemented automatic refunds for players who had purchased the DLC and packages provided previously.

This is quite unfortunate, because the game itself has quite an interesting and ambitious concept. However, it seems that the crowded battle royale market is not possible PlanetSide Arena to last longer. I personally tried the game a few months ago. And from about 10 minutes of matchmaking queues, I could only find around 4 players including myself in two matches. Making the game not fun at all because of the lack of player population.

Closed server PlanetSide Arena it’s certainly a lesson for other developers not to touch the same genre, when it’s already too crowded in the market without its own uniqueness. Moreover, with the condition of the game that has not been completed. This happened in some other ambitious games like Maverick: Proving Grounds which was canceled, until Islands of Nyne which is still in early access and finally freed because the developer went bankrupt.
