Gazillion reportedly shut down, Marvel Heroes offline as soon as November 24th

Massively Overpowered, who has closely followed the drama surrounding Marvel Heroes, has reported by way of an anonymous source that Gazillion Entertainment has disbanded, laid off nearly all staff, and will be shutting down the game November 24th instead of December 31st.

The source also shared parts of a termination letter delivered to Gazillion staff by CEO Dave Dohrmann that indicated creditors had “pulled the plug” on funding, and that accrued time off and health benefits were no longer being honored.

Shortly after, a pair of former Gazillion employees tweeted to confirm and provide context (via USgamer).

As of this writing neither Gazillion, Disney, or Marvel have made any public statements. Marvel Heroes is officially scheduled to shut down on December 31st but if you were planning to play a fond farewell to the game you may want to log in today, just in case.
