Deceive Inc. studio Sweet Bandits has closed down, but the future of the multiplayer spy shooter remains hazy at the moment.

Not a huge fan of the game but still sad to see this happen.

    Just wish that developers would stop with the whole matchmaking, private server crap and let us host our own or at the very least make the server software available when you sunset.

      The devs were talking about releasing a private server. I don’t know if/when it’s actually going to happen, but when the game was released, it was getting a lot of attention on streams and the devs were out and about talking to all the streamers. Private servers/lobbies were the most common thing mentioned, and they said it’s something they were working on.

    It was a pretty fun game, but I’m not surprised either. I think the last time I looked the game only had like 15 active players on Steam which is a shame. This is why I hate the idea of “online only” games because now nobody will be able to play it.
