Released last year, and going to be shut down by January 18, 2025

Looks like a free to play MMO with microtransactions and a season pass. No refunds will be given out.

It's not the best example for the Stop Killing Games movement, but it at least highlights the trend of studios that are releasing games and then dropping all support soon after.

It would be great if studios started planning for an end of life transition where players could spin up their own servers, or at least allow some sort of offline mode so that the game doesn't just become completely unplayable.

Blue Protocol seemed to be following closely in the footsteps of Genshin Impact, with a world of blue skies, green grass, and Breath Of The Wild-style enemies to bash through action-RPG combat.

Another live service game trying to cash in on the success of it’s predecessors. Another fail – big surprise.
