‘Rise Of Incarnates’ PC Game Shuts Down For Good; Bandai Namco Reduces Prices
"Rise of Incarnates" PC game will be shut down this coming December and the servers will be closed for good. In game purchases will be lowered by Bandai Namco.
The free-to-play fighting game "Rise of Incarnates" is now closing its doors. The PC game started just a few months ago on July 1. There is no reason given by publisher Bandai Namco. The servers are still running, but it will only remain until Dec. 15. After that the free-to-play PC game will now cease to exist, according to PC Gamer.
The game will no longer be available for purchase starting Oct. 14. "Rise of Incarnates" PC game characters will now be available for free, and in-game items will have reduced prices. Some of those in-game items can even be acquired for free, according to Anime News Network.
Last July, the game was launched as a 2-on-2 multiplayer combat in 3D environments. The game, however did not get to attract enough audience for it to stay, according to Eurogamer.net.
"Thank you for using "RISE OF INCARNATES," states Bandai Namco on their cancellation announcement, according to PC Games N. "We must regretfully inform all users of the closure of "RISE OF INCARNATES."
"We offer our sincere thanks to everyone who has supported this game," The announcement continued. "We will be keeping the servers open until December 15, 2015, so please continue to enjoy "RISE OF INCARNATES" until the very end."
Ryuichiro Baba, producer of "Mobile Suit Gundam Extreme Vs.", said in a past interview that "Rise of Incarnates" PC game was developed because of Bandai Namco's reluctance to localize the "Gundam Extreme Vs." series which also has the same 2-on-2 gameplay of "Rise of Incarnates" PC game to the West. The next "Mobile Suit Gundam: Extreme Vs. Force" will get an English release in Asia soon, according to sources.
