Nexon Announces Closure Of First Assault In Americas, Europe, And Oceania
Following the closure of First Assault servers in Japan, it probably won't come as much of a surprise to you that Nexon would follow suit. The company announced plans to sunset the game in the North and South Americas, European, and Oceania regions on December 6.
The post -- ironically posted by an admin by the name of "Predictable" -- states that the reason for discontinuing the game came from the conclusion that "continued development wasn't going to help the game become what [they] hoped it would become." As the game won't be shutting down for a few months, the post also indicates that Nexon plans to continue to support the game during that time, in an effort to give the developers and publishing team time to say goodbye.
As for now, Nexon is closing the game's shop immediately. No mention has been made regarding refunds for already purchased items.
