Three months after release and with no players, Let It Die's sequel is being mothballed

2016's Let it Die is a F2P brawler developed by Grasshopper Manufacture, which found its way to PC in 2018, and it's a semi-decent game with superb presentation. The title was published by GungHo and, in October 2021, a sequel was announced, being developed by the Grasshopper spinoff Supertrick Games. Deathverse: Let it Die had a beta in summer of last year before launching in October, and was immediately beset by two problems: No-one was playing it and, when they were, connection issues abounded.
The game currently has ten players in it. Today's peak number of players was 33. Deathverse's all-time peak was 1,380 at launch. These are not close to sustainable numbers for a F2P live service game and now, a scant three months after release, a new blog post announces the "suspension" of Deathverse this summer.

I think the developers were seriously tempting fate when they called the game "Let It Die"...

Well, it worked the first time.
