Innovative Rogue Like MMO Survived By Shutting Down April 19, 2019

It looks like Survived By will have an extremely short lifespan. The game is shutting down on April 19, 2019 before it even exited Steam Early Access.

After much deliberation and sadness, beginning today, we will be ceasing development of Survived By. We greatly appreciate the time you’ve spent playing Survived By since our launch in Closed Beta and all of the you’ve provided.

This decision hasn’t come easily. We still believe in the core idea of Survived By, but after careful consideration of the game’s progress since its inception, we feel we won’t be able to reach the vision we originally conceived.

We plan to keep the Survived By servers up until April 19th, 2019 and will be disabling all in-game real money purchases later today. To anyone who has ed Survived By’s development, we’ll be giving full automatic refunds to everyone who has ever purchased items or packs in the coming weeks.

It's definitely sad to see this one go as it played around with a lot of unique ideas. The game played a bit like Realm of the Mad God, except that death was a part of the game's progression. The only other game even remotely like Survived By is Realm of the Mad God, so if you were a fan of Survived By, make sure to check it out.
