Babylon’s Fall is shutting down in early 2023
PlatinumGames has announced that it will be shutting down Babylon’s Fall on February 27th, 2023.
As a result of this decision, the developer is also canceling the large-scale updates it has planned for the game. A Final Season is scheduled to begin following the end of Season 2 in November that will run until the game’s service ends in February 2023. Up until the end of service, PlatinumGames plans to implement “many events and other initiatives.”
As of today, the premium currency Garaz and the digital version of the game are no longer available to purchase.
“Leading up until today, we received a lot of feedback from all our Sentinels through multiple surveys, official livestreams, our official Discord server and social media channels, which has been a great help to us in the Development and Operations teams,” a message on the game’s official website reads. “In particular, through our surveys we received a great deal of enthusiastic messages of support alongside keen observations of issues and suggestions for improvement. This really made us feel that we were able to create the world of BABYLON’S FALL together with our players. Despite all of your support, we are truly sad and sorry to say that we will be unable to continue with the game’s service.”
Babylon’s Fall was originally released in March of this year for PlayStation 5, PlayStation 4, and PC.
