And there's mobile spinoffs coming. They got a new deal this year with some company to make mobile stuff while the core Dev keeps maintaining the central game.
I played the current gen console ports and it was awful. Really stuttered on PS4 Pro. Never bothered to try again on Xbox One X.
it was first famous as an MMO answer from the creator of Grand Theft Auto with robust visuals and a top of the line character creator, made by the devs of Crackdown.
First due on 360 and PC in 2008, it saw Years of delay and a cancelled 360 version. The devs spent over $100 million making it one of the most expensive games to ever release by 2010.
But it hurt itself out of the gate with an incredible review embargo that didn't allow reviews until after it was on sale for a full week to the public, who were already sharing reviews and blogs. This caused reviewers to criticize their practices right away.
The reviews themselves weren't good, pointing to an unfinished and unpolished experience.
The game was a bomb, the devs fell into administration months after launch, and the game was shut down.
It was bought by a new company and relaunched as APB Reloaded. This version never came to last gen consoles and moved companies a couple more times. It finally came to Xbox One in 2016, and PS4 a year later.
But surprise, it's still alive and still worth something because another company bought it out this year to add more mobile stuff.
Do you play this? Who is playing it?
