Developer V1 Interactive has announced that Disintegration, the FPS-RTS hybrid from Halo co-creator Marcus Lehto, will see its online multiplayer mode removed across all platforms later this year.

This will be rolled out over the next few months, starting with the removal on the in-game store today, and ending with a full shutdown of the servers and removal of the mode on 17th November. The single-player campaign will be unaffected, and publisher Private Division has confirmed that trophies will be updated on PlayStation to ensure that they are all attainable in the game's single-player mode.

"From both the development team at V1 Interactive and publishing group at Private Division, we stand by the creative risks taken to launch such a unique, genre-bending game created by this small but talented and passionate team," said a joint statement from V1 Interactive and Private Division.

"While our player base showed interest in the single player campaign, the game unfortunately struggled to build a significant audience necessary for a compelling multiplayer experience. After weighing options, we have collectively made the decision to sunset the multiplayer support."

But the game's multiplayer mode was slightly sparse even at launch, and it seems it didn't get any better from there. While it's always disappointing to see a game's multiplayer removed, it's great news that the team will be making sure that this doesn't negatively impact trophy hunters.
