Amazon's Crucible is being shut down in November

The third-person shooter will have lasted just six months

A little less than five months after first release, Amazon's Crucible is being discontinued. Servers will close in November, and developer Relentless Studios transitioned to other Amazon Games projects.

"We very much appreciate the way that our fans have rallied around our efforts, and we've loved seeing your responses to the changes we've made over the last few months," the team wrote in a Steam news update. "But ultimately we didn't see a healthy, sustainable future ahead of Crucible."

The public to closed beta, in order to get a firmer lay of the land of players and assess priorities. The team has gradually updated features since then, per a new roap, but according to this post, data they've collected made it clear Crucible was going to be too much of a struggle to maintain.

All in-game purchases have been disabled, and you can have anything you've bought refunded from the Crucible page. A last hurrah will start in a few weeks, before servers are officially switched off on November 9.

delay this summer, it's due out in 2021.
