Developer Hi-Rez Studios has announced that the Switch version of the free-to-play multiplayer shooter Rogue Company will end service on June 20, as “the performance of our Switch port was not up to our standards.” Additionally, in-game purchases for real money will no longer be available and Nintendo eShop purchases will turn off as soon as possible. Rogue Company is available now and will still remain active on PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X/S, PlayStation 4, Xbox One, and PC via Steam and Epic Games Store.The full announcement via Hi-Rez:After a lot of discussion, thought, and conversations across our team, we’ve made the difficult decision for Rogue Company to end support for our Nintendo Switch version, with our final date of support being June 20. This choice wasn’t made easily or without concern for our community, however we realized that the performance of our Switch port was not up to our standards, and we were unable to provide the level of support our players deserved. This shift allows us to provide players on other platforms better support and focus for their specific issues, as well as deliver updates with more flexibility and frequency whenever needed.As of April 11, in game purchases for real money will no longer be available and Nintendo eShop purchases will turn off as soon as possible.
