Out of all of Square Enix\u2019s releases in the last few years, Babylon\u2019s Fall<\/em> was perhaps the strangest. A collaboration between Square Enix and Platinum Games sounded great on paper, and by all rights, it should have produced an excellent game. However, earlier today Square Enix announced that it would shut down the servers for Babylon\u2019s Fall<\/em> on February 28, 2023. This comes only six months after the game\u2019s release, which is certainly a sad ending for the title.<\/p>\n

It\u2019s no surprise that Babylon\u2019s Fall<\/em> is shutting down, though. After underwhelming reviews from critics and an extremely low amount of players, this was guaranteed to happen at some point. But it\u2019s strange that neither Square Enix nor Platinum Games didn\u2019t decide to steer the game in a better direction post-release, especially since Square Enix asked fans for their input via a survey. The best example of post-launch support is No Man\u2019s Sky<\/em>, which was able to fix most of its issues and add plenty of new content. But this was after years of updates and hard work, which Babylon\u2019s Fall<\/em> didn\u2019t quite warrant.<\/p>\n

Babylon\u2019s Fall\u00a0<\/em>is shutting down next year<\/h2>\n
Babylon\u2019s Fall<\/em> had plenty of problems, but it\u2019s always a shame to see a game meet its end like this. And since it was a fully priced game, there are now plenty of players left out of pocket. But this situation gets stranger, as Babylon\u2019s Fall<\/em> isn\u2019t simply shutting down in a few months. The game has actually been taken off a few storefronts. One of these is Steam, where it is no longer possible to buy the game. Granted, it\u2019s unlikely that many players would have purchased the game now.<\/p>\n
Those who already own Babylon\u2019s Fall<\/em> will still have content to play for the game\u2019s remaining time. Alongside the announcement, a blog post on the Babylon\u2019s Fall<\/em> website announced a small roadmap of upcoming content. There\u2019s nothing too impressive here, it\u2019s mainly just events and special rewards. But that\u2019ll be it for Babylon\u2019s Fall<\/em> until it shuts down for good on February 28, 2023.<\/p>\n
