In September.
The Cycle: Frontier is the latest extraction shooter to close its doors. The folks at YAGER announced that the servers will close down on September 27, 2023. This marks less than a year and a half after the game’s June 2022 launch.
The culprit? Cheaters and YAGER’s inability to deal with them before they drove away a good amount of the player base.
The general behavior with online games after a good launch is a couple of nice weeks, then a dwindling interest, until stabilization after a few months. During perhaps one of the most important periods of a live game, we faced many challenges. One of them and perhaps the most crucial one was the increasing number of cheaters shortly after TC:F went live. Although we had tools and measurements in place, we quickly realized we needed to improve our anti-cheat efforts to be able to ensure a fair game experience for all players.
Another one bites the dust.
