This week, Turbine, a video game developer and maker of the game Infinite Crisis, announced that two months into its official launch, the company is pulling the plug on the multiplayer online battle arena (or MOBA) game featuring characters from the world of DC Comics.
According to Hiawatha Bray of The Boston Globe, Turbine announced on Tuesday that they’d be fully shutting down Infinite Crisis in August. The reasons, according to the article, were the potential marketing costs for Turbine parent company TimeWarner, and the small amount of players participating in the game daily — the most well-known MOBA, League of Legends has about 7.
