Today starts a Hack’n Slay MMORPG – But it has been through a lot

The hack and slash MMORPG Guardians of Ember has entered open beta. After a scandal in February 2018, the game is now returning under a new publisher.

This is the open beta: On March 20, Guardians of Ember entered open beta.

It is now managed by Gameforge and brings several changes with the new beta. The publisher markets the game as “hack and slash MMORPG.”

What Guardians of Ember has already been through: The game was involved in a scandal on Steam in February 2018.

The then publisher Insel Games encouraged its own employees to write reviews about their game “Wild Buster: Heroes of Titan.”

All of the publisher’s games were subsequently removed from the Steam platform. Guardians of Ember also suffered significant reputation damage and only managed to achieve 100-200 concurrent players thereafter. Marketing without Steam was simply too difficult.
