The game hasn’t even been announced! We haven’t even gotten any indication of anything related to this apart from an untranslated web leak and an accidentally launched incomplete teaser site which has now been closed. If at that point we still haven’t heard anything then I’d say we can begin the process of panicking.Īs for Deth Bath I definitely don’t think we should worry (yet). But really I’d give it until the end of January. I’d say a reason for this situation could be that the Extraction team is still trying to integrate itself within Nexon America as it seems the partnership was rather hastily organized after previous publishing plans (when the game was still called Dirty Bomb) seem to have fallen through.

Of course this could just be me taking a lack of bad news (or any news) to be good news, considering there has been no true indication of ANYTHING when it comes to Extraction in recent times. I see nothing which would truly indicate any change of plans in the service of Extraction. So what should really be made of this? My take on it is to be optimistic. The only two posts which have followed consisted of “Happy Halloween -insert picture of Extraction logo pumpkin carving here-” (October 31) and the announcement that Splash Damage would be heading to British gaming festival INSOMNIA (November 27). Since then there has been next to zilch when it comes to concrete and useful information. We’ve sent out another batch of beta keys and we looking forward to seeing many of you in game! Didn’t get a key yet? Not to worry because more are being sent out soon! The last thing of substance which has been communicated from the game’s team to the community was on October 30, just half a month after the closed beta began: Closed beta appears to be ongoing with the vast majority of closed beta applicants still awaiting keys of access which were supposed to be regularly released. The game’s closed beta began, after a delay, on October 15, 2013. It is advertised as being different from the generic FPS and it set in London after a mysterious radiological attack. So what about Extraction? Extraction is an announced first-person shooter from Splash Damage, the developer of Doom 3, Enemy Territory: Quake Wars among other games. Navy Field 2 seems to have completely fallen off of Nexon’s radar after closed beta ended in May with no information whatsoever from the team. No communication regarding the (previously?) planned service of Shadow Company in North America and Europe has been released almost since the initial announcement.

Both games imploded in Japan while Navy Field 2 has also been performing unimpressively in Europe. Although no official announcements have been made regarding the futures of the North American publishing plans for first-person shooter Shadow Company and real-time strategy Navy Field 2 it is safe to assume that both have been canceled.
