Bruh... go play on the private servers. They exist.
They do? where?

Google is your friend. It takes all of 3 seconds. The devs released the code and then some of the community hosted a few servers using Discords for players or you can host your own and play against bots/friends.
Bring Back Spell Break !
I miss this game, was fun while it lasted. Was the only pvp game that primarily uses magic in it's combat system instead of guns. Rare yet lost
THere was nothing else quite like it. Getting the Flight ability and soaring way up in the sky whilst others fought it out below, combining a Toxic ball with a Fire ball and creating giant Dragonfire explosions whilst remaining in the clouds was soooo fun. Then you could drop down in the chaos and start doing cool stuff. It was so much more creative than other battle royales, no idea why it flopped so hard.
As a kickstarter for the game I can say in the early days this showed a ton of promise and was slowly but surely going downhill. From a toxic community(Mainly cheaters) to all sorts of plain unfun meta crap it became what many other games before it had become. To try to reduce the issue, they released it on Epic and with some Epic funding made it exclusive. Believe it or not, this is not what killed the game as it was already at that point while it was still on steam. All BR's post Apex have seen the exact same fate.

It released on Epic first and Steam second. They were paid money to release exclusively on Epic and waited over a year to release on Steam. This resulted in a bunch of missed sales from the much larger Steam playerbase. Between feeling jaded about the rug pull after advertising on Steam for over a year and mentioning nothing about an Epic Exclusive Deal.

The long and short of it boils down to missed sales due to people being rightfully upset, no longer being interested in the game, missing the hype window and simply bad business decisions.

The nail in the coffin was being bought out by Blizzard.
The game was on Steam first. During their Beta, they were having issues with Steam for distributing keys. Epic caught wind, offered money, and the team took it which was the right call. A guaranteed pay day is much better than a gamble with Steam users.

That's factually incorrect. The Steam CLOSED BETA was AFTER the Epic Games release.

Epic: Sep 3rd, 2020
Steam CLOSED BETA: October 21st, 2020

Source: The announcements in both Steam and Epic Game's forums.

Also, that aside a Closed Beta =\= Release.

And no, it was not the "Right Call". Steam has over 120 Million monthly active users with around 1 BILLION registered users.

EGS has only 230 million registered users with only 50 Million active monthly users.

They simply took the Epic Bribe Bux and planned to release on Steam after like all the others that did it. It made financial sense at the time but ultimately was a bad call.

Source: Press releases from EGS, Steam/Valve and Steamcharts.

EDIT: I'm not trying to be an ass, just ensuring the timeline of events is preserved.

There was an Alpha on Steam before Epic and it did not generate as much interest as expected which assisted in the devs' choice of taking Epic money. Again, a great move. I didn't bother reading past those first few lines as you don't even have the timeline correct.
any news about this game?? i hope it will come back.
Miss this game so much
Damn, I can't believe this thread is still going
Shout out to all of you still here in 2025! This was sad loss for gaming.
