In regards to Blacklight: Retribution, the writing for the game’s closure has been on the wall for several years now, particularly dating back to 2015 when its developer Zombie Studios shut its doors as well as last year when publisher Hardsuit Labs announced the merger of the US and EU servers into one. Average user numbers dropped to below 100 in August 2018, according to Steam Charts, and the end was inevitable.
As posted on Reddit, PC servers will permanently shut down on March 11. Playstation 4 players, however many there are, have been spared from the shutdown simply due to the fact that there are no in-game servers hosted for it. To thank the remaining players, all items have been unlocked and made free on the PC store.
