Star Wars Galaxies shut down forever

in News, Star Wars

Star Wars Galaxies farewell

As we are only couple days away from the official release (unless you have early access) of the new Star Wars game, Star Wars The Old Republic, Sony Online Entertainment has shut down the Star Wars Galaxies servers forever last week. Galaxies had been online for 8 years before players waved goodbyte to their beloved MMO.

 

 

MMO games like any other game are born, they live and they die. This can not be avoided except for some rare cases that we may find out in the future (with games like WoW - who knows?).

As the new Star Wars game "Star Wars The Old Republic" is getting ready to challenge the MMO World with its super-sized production budget and all the attention it has received for months, Sony Online Entertainment put an end to its long running Star Wars Galaxies.

There was special events before the end. Players joined the massive battles for the last time and some of them actually shed tears as their favorite MMO servers shut down.

We will be talking about Star Wars The Old Republic from next week for years but we won't forget Star Wars Galaxies, which had been a fantastic MMO game of its time.
