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.

Another one bites the dust.

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.

[BlacKJesu5]

That's like saying buying cod at 60 is bad..cause you know a new version is coming and you won't play last years

[Sgt_Slaughter]

Not even slightly the same. I can still play Modern Warfare 2 because, guess what, it still works online AND it has offline modes. This applies to I think every Call of Duty game.

With Blacklight, everything you've ever purchased is gone forever after the servers are gone, and you can never play the game again.

Is there no other f2p games.....Apex legends just came out..play the new version

[masterfox]

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.

Yes, I see this happening if the fanbase is there, too.

[Zjet]

And this why all online games should have an offline single player mode, and the reason I will never buy an online only game

Blacklight Tango Down was a paid game too, had no offline support.

They had a very good run, couldn't last forever
