Stormgate, the StarCraft-like RTS that launched last summer, is losing online multiplayer support because its server partner was bought by an AI company

Stormgate, a real-time strategy game, will cease online play support at the end of April following the acquisition of Hathora, its server provider, by Fireworks AI. A patch for offline gameplay will be released by Frost Giant Studios. Hathora announced the termination of support for Stormgate and other games, with a final date set for May 5. The game raised nearly .8 million through Kickstarter and private investments but has received mixed reviews on Steam, with low player engagement. Frost Giant Studios hopes to revive online play in the future if a partner is found, but current financial challenges may limit this possibility. The offline patch will allow players to engage with the campaign and solo modes.
