Harmony will quickly be gone, with it being taken offline tomorrow at time of writing following an announcement earlier this week basically saying the plug was being pulled.
It was disappointing information for all (49 at the moment on Steam) gamers who purchased into the sport, however they could a minimum of discover some solace in a brand new report that implies the approaching Secret Degree episode primarily based on Firewalk’s shooter will stay within the Amazon Prime sequence.
Introduced throughout Gamescom ONL 2024, the brand new sequence is a sequence of episodic tales informed inside the world of assorted video games, together with Harmony. As considered one of 15 tales together with different titles akin to Sifu, Warhammer 40K, Armored Core, PAC MAN, and extra, ideas instantly went as to if or not a brand new sport would take its place.
Not so, in line with an IGN supply. The episode will keep, and in all chance it is going to digitally outlive the sport it’s primarily based on by merely current on-line for longer than two weeks.
Except in fact the sport does return correctly, as is recommended within the cancellation publish. Should you genuinely love the sport there’s nonetheless hope, grim because it appears.
If the earlier profitable (and even the not-so-successful) online game diversifications have any sample to them, it’s that the diversifications are pushing individuals to the video games.
It’s technically attainable that the Secret Degree episode may launch and drive-up curiosity in Harmony truly returning, although who’s to say whether or not or not PlayStation has already made up its thoughts at that time concerning the way forward for the reside service sport.
The factor about it, is that whereas Harmony proved to be a stable shooter that maybe wasn’t doing something too particular, it did have sturdy foundations that would’ve been constructed on – the way in which all profitable reside service video games have performed.
It was a foul begin for certain, and there’s one thing to be mentioned about how the builders time is finest spent, when participant counts have been as little as they have been on such a large venture.
However for the sport to not even final greater than two weeks feels a bit prefer it would possibly’ve been too quickly. In any case, there’s nonetheless the prospect it’ll return, even when the lone episode amongst a sequence of probably significantly better episodes fails to maneuver the needle.
Till we get the exhausting information that it’s gone, we may nonetheless see it come again.
