Dead Island: Epidemic closing down Oct 15

[Deep Silver]

Dear players,

Ever since starting with the Closed Alpha, and all the way through the Closed Beta and Open Beta, we’ve received a great amount of useful criticism and encouraging feedback from our players. This has been invaluable for all the teams involved in developing the game.

Over the past weeks and months we’ve been evaluating how to proceed with Dead Island: Epidemic and looking towards the future for the game. We’re sad to announce today that we’ve come to the conclusion to cease further development.

We will be leaving the servers open until the end of October 15th (Pacific Time), during which time we’ll run a very large discount on all characters and boosts to give everyone a chance to spend any remaining currency on characters and items you may have wanted to try before, but never did.

We want to thank everyone for their support, their feedback, and their time playing Dead Island: Epidemic! The game would not have been the same without you.

Signed,
Team Dead Island: Epidemic

That's sad, it's not about the money some spent in it, but that was a potential MOBA.
I will thank you for that perseverance even if that wasn't enough to continue !
R.I.P. Dead Island : Epidemic !

Remember those Deadicated/Contagion packs that included perks at game launch AND open beta? If you were dumb enough to buy one of those you should be asking steam for a refund since they clearly won't be delivering those launch perks to you.

Saw a pretty big future for this game, this is an pretty unfortunate....just wondered what was planned ahead of us and what the reason was for shutting down, hope there'll be some sort of resurrection into this game if you guys change your minds...

You will be missed Dead Island :Epidemic....

Its a real shame, but not suprising at this point. Had a lot of fun with DI:E. Put over 400 hours into it.

Would have hoped for a final release to get atleast a small new wave of players in, to extend the life of the game for atleast a couple more months.

Why do I allways have to fall in love with multiplayer games that have to die.

Well i dont know what to say.. I met in this game one of the best friend in my life (K@GE) so.. well maybe its just a game but my life will not be the same...

Sad to hear!
I really loved this game. Played it a bunch and with all the mobas out there, i find DIE the most fun.
Let's give the game a good ending and lets all play some scavenger!
See you out there.

you guy's should just make the game a 5$ stand alone game and allow peoples to host the server's themselve's ... no need to really finish it , just give some modding tools and that game will sell like hot cake's.

but like every free to play you're just not gonna make anything happen , you're just gonna let the game die while not caring if peoples won't be capable of playing it again.

video games as an art form is great but Video games as a business is a sad thing.

Deep Silver, what about to make singleplayer game on this engine with this characters? it will be good memory for this game!
