City Of Heroes Servers Are Going Bye, Bye!

City Of Heroes servers are going bye, bye because the game will soon reach the end of its life. The news about City Of Heroes shutting down definitely surprised me and it also surprised a lot of people as well because, as far as I know, City Of Heroes isn't experiencing any kind of problems. In fact, new updates were just recently released and some of them like the Water Blast Power Set are pretty cool.

The news about the impending closure of City Of Heroes servers was announced in the official website. From what I could understand from the announcement, the only reason given as to why City Of Heroes is closing had something to do with the company's realignment of focus and publishing support.

As a gamer, I have no idea what that means but that's why City Of Heroes and it's servers are closing. Actually, it's not just the servers. NCSoft has decided to shut down or close Paragon Studios which is the company developing City Of Heroes. If there is no Paragon Studios then there won't be any City Of Heroes.

As for the exact date and time City Of Heroes will turn its lights off, the announcement didn't say anything about it. I guess the purpose of the announcement is to prepare those who are still playing the game about the closure and to give them time to finish everything they're doing and to say goodbye to all their friends in the game.

City Of Heroes is the only game I bought or paid for online and I had lots of fun playing it. I briefly returned when it went Free-To-Play and played the game for a while before moving on to other games. My time playing City Of Heroes was well spent because I enjoyed every minute of it.

Also, if you are a former player and you still have the game installed on your computer then why not visit the game again and reminisce about the good old days of your career as a Superhero or a Villain.

Bye, bye City Of Heroes. Bye, bye Paragon Studios. Bye, bye City Of Heroes servers.
