Fury Closing Down

Today, Auran staff delivered a sad news to the players who have enjoyed Fury, website and game servers are closing down in 48 hours :


We have reached our time limit to find a solution that would help us keep the Fury servers open. Sadly, no solution has been found and so we have no alternative than to shut the servers down in 48 hours.

To all those players who have enjoyed Fury and played countless battles, I am sorry that we could not find a viable business model that would allow you to continue playing. To all those naysayers and doomsdayers, we know that deep down you wanted Fury to succeed. Have fun with your parting wishes

To the Auran team, who put their heart and soul into making Fury, thanks for your efforts. As I said many times before, we need to be much better than the competition to have a chance of succeeding. We gave it everything we had and history now judges that it still wasn’t good enough.

Whilst this marks the end of the Fury chapter, who knows what the future may bring. There were many gems hidden within Fury and many lessons learned. Hopefully one day the full potential can be realized in some other form.

So for now, so long and thanks for all the fish.

P.S. We informed all stores more than a month ago to remove stock from their shelves. If you have purchased a copy of Fury in the past month, we suggest you return it to the store.

P.P.S. This website will also close down in 48 hours.

    im not surprised its going down, first of all it was no subscription and second it was a terrible game, even if it was designed on good concepts and ideas

    Quite sad that another MMO has lost to World of Warcraft. Ah well, like I give a damn.

    I played Fury for a while and I'd have to say that the game wasn't as bad as most said. They introduced LOTS of changes after launch that took it from being a really, really, really bad game to a good game that missed the boat by quite a way. I'm not saying it was good, because it wasn't but Fury had that feeling of potential that most bad games (like Hellgate) don't have.

    It's true though: This game has LOTS of gems and lessons to be learnt and if Auran turned round and said that they were going to go forward and develop a new Fury like game, I would be there to see what happened. Simply put, it had a chance and lost that chance.
