Overview
- Frost Giant said its RTS Stormgate will lose multiplayer at the end of April after Hathora, which manages its multiplayer servers, was bought by Fireworks AI.
- The studio will ship a patch to let the game run offline when service ends, with online modes disabled until a replacement is in place.
- Hathora’s site confirms the Fireworks AI acquisition, says it is discontinuing game services, and names Nitrado’s GameFabric as an exclusive transition partner offering zero downtime migration.
- Frost Giant has not said it will use the GameFabric path and told players it will share details on offline mode and any interim patches.
- Hathora lists other live games it supported, including Splitgate 2 and Predecessor, showing how a third‑party pivot to AI work can suddenly disrupt online access for multiple studios.
