Bloodline Champions is an online arena game developed by Stunlock Studios and published by Funcom. Orginally released in 2011, Bloodline Champions has seen its fair share of ups and downs. The game never managed to reach a huge audience, despite being critically acclaimed. Today, Funcom has made the decision to cease operation of their servers and give control of the title back to Stunlock Studios.
