Spectre Divide Shutting Down Right After Console Launch

The free-to-play 3v3 shooter, Spectre Divide, is shutting down after only six months. This news comes just weeks after its release on PS5 and Xbox Series X|S. Developer Mountaintop Studios is also closing its doors.

Mountaintop CEO Nate Mitchell announced the closure on social media, citing disappointing Season 1 performance as the reason. Despite a strong initial launch week with 400,000 players and a peak of 10,000 concurrent players, the game failed to maintain momentum. Low revenue and dwindling funds ultimately led to the studio's decision.

What's Next?

• Servers will be shut down in 30 days.
• All purchases made since the start of Season 1 will be refunded.

This closure is particularly noteworthy given Mitchell's confident October 2024 statement that Spectre Divide was here to stay. The game, praised for its unique Duality system (controlling two characters per match), now joins a growing list of failed live-service titles, including Suicide Squad: Kill the Justice League and Sony's Concord. Another casualty of the challenging current gaming market.
