As a former dedicated Insurgency player… Yeah, there were very few people worth keeping at NWI. They made an awesome concept for a game and then had to spend years upon years fixing incomprehensible, Garry’s Mod level bugs.

And let me tell you, Insurgency at the end of its life was becoming a humungously popular game, and they announced and released its sequel, Insurgency: Sandstorm far too early.

So NWI had made a lot of very silly mistakes, and yet there is a wonderful game with a wonderful community still there.

UPDATE: Saber Interactive has provided Insider Gaming with the following statement on the news that New World Interactive is being shut down.

“Saber can confirm there have been restructuring changes involving our New World Interactive subsidiary. This reorganization has unfortunately resulted in layoffs at the studio. We are working to fill existing open roles within Saber with individuals affected by these changes wherever feasible and we will be providing severance packages to those employees impacted.

“Development will continue on Insurgency: Sandstorm, as well as unannounced future projects.”

Oof
