Highguard will officially go offline on March 12, developer Wildlight has announced. This was the expected result, given that player numbers had fallen dramatically and the game was being supported only by a skeleton crew following mass layoffs at the company.
More than 2 million people played Highguard, the studio said, and “many believed in what we were building.” Wildlight said it is “deeply grateful” for the fans, but admitted, “We have not been able to build a sustainable player base to support the game long term.”
Highguard will remain playable until March 12, and Wildlight said it hopes people will come back “one more time to show your support and get those final great matches in while we still can.”
Highguard will get one final update, which will add a new Warden, a new weapon, account level progression, and skill trees. The patch is expected to arrive March 3 or March 4, and the full patch notes will be shared later.
“From all of us at Wildlight, thank you for playing, for supporting us, and for being part of Highguard’s story,” the developer said.
Highguard featured numerous microtransactions for cosmetics, but it’s unclear if Wildlight will offer any refunds. GameSpot has contacted Wildlight in
