Counterplay Games has been in the news lately for its upcoming action RPG Godfall which will launch for the PS5 and PC. The developer first made its name with Duelyst, a CCG/tactics title that had a fairly positive reception at launch. Unfortunately, it seems the title will be shutting down servers on February 27th.
Server closure means that the online title will be essentially dead next month. If you purchased the in-game currency Diamonds between December 21st 2019 and January 24th 2020, then you’re entitled to a refund. Diamond purchases has been disabled with players having until March 30th to request a refund.
Though it debuted to strong praise, Duelyst would face criticism for its balance changes and RNG-dependent gameplay. It also doesn’t help that competitors like Hearthstone continue to hog the attention while other big names like Riot Games are getting into the genre with Legends of Runeterra. Hopefully things work out better for Godfall when it releases in the holiday season.
