We’re in the closing days of 2016, but it seems victims of the killer year continue to pile up. Today’s victim is not a person but rather a service. Digital PC game storefront Games Republic has announced that they will be shutting down.
Games Republic was started in 2014 by independent game studio 11 Bit Studios, the developer behind games such as Anomaly: Warzone Earth, This War of Mine, and the currently in development Frostpunk, and publisher behind games like Tower 57 and Spacecom. Games Republic provided a new place to purchase games, offering up an alternative to services like Steam and Origin.
I’m reaching out to you today with important news regarding Games Republic.
On Thursday, December 8, it was decided by Games Republic management and 11 bit studios board to shut down GamesRepublic.com with the end of the year. Today we’ll be disabling the possibility to purchase games in our store. Users will be able log in to their accounts to download their games and activation codes till the end of January, and will be informed about this in a special message.
If you visit Games Republic’s storefront then all you will see is a message informing you that Games Republic is shutting down. You can no longer purchase games from their store. The message states that you will have until January 31st, 2017 to download your games before the service is taken offline entirely.
