Former WoW Designer’s MMO Studio, Fantastic Pixel Castle, to Shut Down After Two Years

Fantastic Pixel Castle, the MMO studio led by former World of Warcraft lead system designer, Greg Street, is set to close down after just two years of operation. The studio, backed by NetEase, was founded with high hopes of creating a successful MMO game but unfortunately, it seems that these dreams will not come to fruition.

This news comes as a disappointment to many fans of Greg Street, who had hoped that his expertise in game design would lead to a successful venture in the MMO genre. However, it appears that the challenges in the MMO market, especially after the release of games like New World, have proven too difficult to overcome.

Despite the closure of Fantastic Pixel Castle, Greg Street remains a respected figure in the gaming industry and it will be interesting to see where his career takes him next. NetEase, the company behind the studio, has not yet announced any plans for the future of the development team or the projects they were working on.

For now, fans of Fantastic Pixel Castle and Greg Street will have to say goodbye to the MMO studio and keep an eye out for any future announcements from the talented game designer.
