Spectre Divide had been generating buzz ever since it was revealed that the renowned streamer and former esports pro, Shroud, was involved in its development. However, a prominent name alone isn't a guarantee for success. Today, Mountaintop Studios announced its closure and the imminent shutdown of the shooter's servers.
The studio is set to dissolve by the end of this week, with the game's servers scheduled to stay online for just under a month. During this period, Mountaintop Studios has committed to refunding players for their in-game purchases. The game struggled to capture a sizable audience or generate sufficient revenue to sustain operations.

It's easy to feel disheartened by yet another project that didn't make it, but this situation underscores the immense challenge of entering the live-service gaming market. Let's face it—Spectre Divide didn't bring anything revolutionary or groundbreaking to the table, which failed to draw players in. Even Shroud's fame and esports experience couldn't secure the game's success. The truth is, there's a significant divide between top-tier players and casual gamers, each with distinct preferences and priorities.
Ultimately, another esports-inspired venture has not met its mark in the competitive landscape of game development. Press F to pay respects.
