ubi dropped development for this game in late 2022 so they are just trying to make quick buck with the steam release

But it released in January 2022. Or do you mean late 2021?

No? the game released on 20th of January 2022 and ubisoft confirmed they dropped the development by fall of 2022 so there wont be any new content sadly

Something doesn't add up. It's a single player/coop game, does that mean they released unfinished game? Or do you mean DLC? I don't really care for DLC, actually.

It was meant to be live service PVE game with new content seasons every 3 months just like Siege but they dropped developent after 4th season...

It's like Left 4 Dead clone. I can't imagine it being a live service.

As I understand it, this game was originally an event for Siege. It attracted enough players to have the devs copy paste the maps, assets, operators, and AI from the Siege event into its current standalone version. The bit they did add was the story and cinematics. Which IMO were decent. A shame they decided to put it on life support.

This game is another one of the more recent financial failures for Ubisoft and is reflective of their overall decline as a company financially over the last few years.

I give it another year or two max before Ubisoft announces they will be shutting down online servers.

They seemed to rely on overpriced cosmetics and weapon skins to fund game development which doesn't seem to have been the best choice. A failed pattern many live service games are making.

If they had introduced some kind of a battle pass like Battlefield, COD, Overwatch, PUBG, Halo, and many other shooter games these days are making a primary staple, they might have been able to justify further development. But even that's a stretch as all that would incentive is more battlepass content with minimal free content for everyone else.

Not gonna happen that soon. It's still a premium game, it's 7 years of active servers for those, at least at Ubisoft.

That's not how game development funding works, no matter how hard AAA game corporations try to convince you otherwise.

Again, it's a full priced premium game. If it's so badly made that it can't stand on its own, without relying on DLC and "overpriced cosmetics" then too bad. It deserves to be dead and forgotten. Sorry.

I wish. Absolute waste of time.
