Kinda sums up the interest this game had. When no one here posts about its demise here right away.

    It may not have had a long life, but Faxion Online's certainly was memorable. The PvP-centric MMO with the unique heaven-and-hell theme has announced that it is closing its doors within the month, following rumors that the entire team had been laid off.



    In a brief statement posted on the forums, players were notified of the game's closure, which will occur in a couple quick stages. This week, players will not be able to register for the game, download it, or use the store, while the servers will be powered down within 30 days from today.



    "We're eternally grateful for all the support, feedback, and competition our players have provided through thick and thin," the announcement stated. "Faxion's development was a Herculean effort that some said was impossible given the timeframe and resources we had, and we're proud to have delivered a PvP-driven experience that people could enjoy. Alas, all good things must come to an end."



    Faxion Online launched on May 26th this year, making this one of the quickest demises of an MMO since last year's All Points Bulletin. We at Massively wish the best for Faxion's staff in the coming months.

    That was fast.  I admit the game was under my radar.  I don't play much so most of the games I see advertisements and forum posts, that's it.

     

    It's a shame to see that much work go to waste.

    Considering Mytheon is not beinb published by Gamigo, I don't think it's too far fetched to see Faxion being licensed to another publisher.

    Great, now I can't even try it, or show up for the closing down party.
