Blacklight: Retribution is a first-person free-to-play shooter, developed by Zombie Studios, set to release on the PS4 this year. Being the sequel to the average-reviewed downloadable PS3 title, Blacklight: Tango Down, this iteration will have to prove that it not only improves upon the original formula, but will also have to fight against a number of other games looking push similar business models.
Blacklight Retribution PS4 operations will continue without official support but the game's PC version has been shut down.
Shut the servers down but let people host their own and keep these games active for those who want to play. Its bullshit when they kill a game completely when they could easy patch it for hosting / creating online content
Hardsuit Labs has mentioned that the Blacklight Retribution servers are shutting down on March 11 for PC, though PS4 version will continue as is. All items in the PC store are now free.
Remember playing this when I first got a ps4. Never good news to see games shut down I guess one day online only games can bite the dust
This is why buying into these sort of games are a bad idea.
See this is why online mp only games effing sucks and definitely will never support them. ;)
Depending how much of a cult following it has, it could be revived by some mod team in the distant future. Similar cases have happened with games like 2142 and Star Wars Galaxies.
Blacklight Retribution review with screenshots and videos.
Will be interesting to see what all will cost money.
Can't get much cheaper than free! Looks to be a fun title, from what I saw at E3.
So many games, so little time.
Liked it on PC, but I'll probably enjoy it more on PS4 just because it'll be all new and shiny and next-gen.
I'm really looking frwd to all these mmo FPSs. this game looks very interesting indeed
