Blacklight Retribution is a free to play 3D next-generation first person shooter with cutting edge graphics that leverage AAA game technology such as the Unreal Engine 3 and DirectX 11.
Blacklight Retribution PS4 operations will continue without official support but the game's PC version has been shut down.
Shut the servers down but let people host their own and keep these games active for those who want to play. Its bullshit when they kill a game completely when they could easy patch it for hosting / creating online content
Hardsuit Labs has mentioned that the Blacklight Retribution servers are shutting down on March 11 for PC, though PS4 version will continue as is. All items in the PC store are now free.
Remember playing this when I first got a ps4. Never good news to see games shut down I guess one day online only games can bite the dust
This is why buying into these sort of games are a bad idea.
See this is why online mp only games effing sucks and definitely will never support them. ;)
Depending how much of a cult following it has, it could be revived by some mod team in the distant future. Similar cases have happened with games like 2142 and Star Wars Galaxies.
Blacklight Retribution review with screenshots and videos.
Blacklight Retribution is currently in Closed BETA and the game is pretty dam good for a F2P game DX11 graphics and all (impressive). Plays sorta like CODMW to me.......lots of Run N Gun but minus the $60 price tag cause the game uses the F2P model which means it's FREE!
It still has some issues that are being worked out (it is of course a BETA) but i'm looking forward to the final release which will be FREE.
Check out their website to get a key to download the Beta took me all of 2 minutes to get a Key and start downloading and I even got a special PC Gamer tag.........for FREE!
Oh one more thing........all this is FREE!
This actually looks really awesome. Much better then the first.
And it's free!
