Radical Heights and Lawbreakers Studio Boss Key Productions is Shutting Down

Boss Key Games, the folks known for the hero shooter Lawbreakers, has announced they’re closing their doors.

The studio is shutting down roughly a month after the launch of their battle royale shooter, Radical Heights – news confirmed by studio co-founder Cliff Bleszinski.

Here’s the full message from Bleszinski:


As of today, Boss Key Productions is effectively no more.

Four years ago I set out to make a world class video game studio and I hired some of the best talent in the videogame industry. They worked tirelessly to produce quality products and, while we had our ups and downs, I’d like to think we had fun doing it. LawBreakers was a great game that unfortunately failed to gain traction, and, in a last ditch attempt we scrambled to do our take on the huge battle royale genre with Radical Heights which was well received, however, it was too little too late.

As for myself, I’m going to take some time off and reflect. I need to focus on myself and family as well as my Aussie, Teddy, who is slowly fading from us. Videogames will forever be a part of who I am and I hope to make something new again someday, however, I need to withdraw and take this time.

To those of you who have supported myself and the studio these last four years, THANK YOU from the bottom of my heart and everyone who came to work for me.

Please note that servers for Radical Heights will remain up for the near future.

Thanks again,

Cliff
