The good news is, Deathgarden is free to play as of yesterday. The bad news is: everything else. Behaviour Interactive has nixed development on the game, a year on from its launch.
Deathgarden sprung onto the scene last August, and the multiplayer survival title attracted a dedicated core base. Unfortunately, it was a pretty small crowd, and new players haven’t flocked to it.
Behaviour announced the news in a letter of Deathgarden’s demise to players this week:
“Witnessing the decreasing player base, we’ve been working on finding solutions: we sought advice, considered many different scenarios, looked at various solutions, but unfortunately, none of them would change the fate of this project,” the studio admitted.
“Today, it is with a heavy heart that we’re announcing the end of Deathgarden’s development. To honour the production team’s work, we have decided to give the game a meaningful last breath by finalizing every feature we’ve been working on.”
Behaviour are planning a “sunset Play with the Devs livestream” on 12th December via Twitch to mark the end of the road. The Deathgarden dev team are being reassigned to other projects moving forward.
