Paragon To Close In April, Offering Full Refunds

The multiplayer online battle arena game, Paragon, is set to close on the April 26. Epic Games, the developer of this title, has issued an apology to fans.

The servers will remain open until the close date on April 26, but Epic Games have stated that the matchmaking time may increase a player base is likely to decrease before then.

The apology says:

“Hey Everyone,

It’s with heavy hearts we’ve decided to close down Paragon.

We truly appreciate everything you’ve put into Paragon. We received many passionate ideas for where to take the game; the outpouring of thoughtful suggestions is another testament to this incredible community.

After careful consideration, and many difficult internal debates, we feel there isn’t a clear path for us to grow Paragon into a MOBA that retains enough players to be sustainable.

We didn’t execute well enough to deliver on the promise of Paragon. We have failed you — despite the team’s incredibly hard work — and we’re sorry.

To try to make this right, Epic is offering a full refund to every Paragon player for every purchase on any platform. This refund will come directly from Epic rather than your platform provider.

To request your refund, follow these steps:

1. If you’re not playing on PC, link your Epic account (create one if necessary).
2. If you play on PC, or have already linked your Epic account, you can request your refund here.

We’ll continue operating Paragon servers until April 26, 2018. As the player population continues to decrease, matchmaking times and quality will further degrade.

Thank you for joining us on this journey and for your dedication to Paragon.”

Epic Games has had more success with Fortnite and they will be focusing on developing that game instead.
