Suba Games Quietly Retires Multiple Titles


Says absolutely nothing anywhere.

Suba Games, a publisher who you can always count on for next to nothing and no excuse to show for it. Suba Games is in the news this week after quietly retiring multiple games from Steam with no forward notice or explanation.

The first game is Divine Souls, a free to play MMO developed by GamePrix. Divine Souls is still functioning if you go over to the main website, but the Steam version has apparently been broken for some time now. Now I have no clue if Divine Souls ever technically fully launched, the latest news post shows the open beta launch in 2014. As is common with their other games, Suba Games evidently abandoned support for Divine Souls shortly after launch, and the game has been on maintenance mode ever since.

The next two titles never even released. Game numero dos is Kingdom Heroes 2. Presumably the sequel to Kingdom Heroes, KH2 was developed by UserJoy. It appears UserJoy cancelled Kingdom Heroes a few years back and Suba Games just didn’t figure it out until today. It’s not shocking, considering the Suba Games website still promotes betas from games cancelled 5+ years ago.

And the third is Extopia, a PUBG knockoff developed by Kingsoft. I couldn’t find any mention of Extopia on Kingsoft’s website, which I will grant I do not speak Chinese and may not have navigated well. They don’t appear to be developing it still.

It isn’t uncommon in Chinese studios for companies to quietly cancel games when they run out of funding, but refuse to announce the cancellation because they don’t want to close the door for future deals. Considering Suba Games has yet to take down the page for Global Adventures, a title that shut down in 2018, we don’t expect them to comment.
