Dungeonborne Officially Announces Shutdown Preparation

The developers behind the PvPvE action game Dungeonborne, which drew inspiration from the well-known Dark and Darker, have officially announced the cessation of support and the impending closure of the game's servers. Despite an initial surge of interest, the project, which lasted less than a year, struggled to maintain its player base due to insufficient player engagement and a lack of substantial updates.

While Dungeonborne's page remains available on Steam, it has been removed from the platform's search results and can only be accessed via a direct link. Although the official reasons for the shutdown remain undisclosed, it's evident that the game's extremely low player count was a significant factor. Since late 2024, Dungeonborne saw a peak of only 200 concurrent players, with recent activity plummeting to a mere 10-15 players.

The servers for Dungeonborne are scheduled for permanent closure on May 28, signaling the end of the project's journey. This marks a somber conclusion for a game that once held promise and captured the attention of genre enthusiasts, yet ultimately fell short of fulfilling its potential.
