It's 2024. I'm watching Concord, a live-service game, announce it's shutting down. It's 2025. I'm watching Anthem, a live-service game, announce it's shutting down. It's 2026, and once again, I'm seeing a live-service announce that it's shutting down. Unfortunately, what everyone guessed would happen has finally come to pass – Wildlight Entertainment's Highguard is ending service on March 12th, a mere 45 days after it first launched.

The reasons for this will probably shock you, but here goes: Despite over two million players across all its platforms, and its team putting in the “hard work,” Wildlight has “not been able to build a sustainable player base to support the game long term.” As a result, Highguard is shutting down. Servers are still available, and a new update should be live by the time you see this, which adds another new Warden, skill trees, a fresh weapon and account level progression.
