Delisting
On December 11th, 2017, n-Space announced on the game’s Steam page and Twitter account that Sword Coast Legends would be removed from sale on December 31st. The post explained that the Dungeons & Dragons publishing contract had ended, requiring the game to be taken off of sale.
The announcement also added that “multiplayer servers will remain live for an indefinite, unspecified, amount of time”. On May 25th, 2018, n-Space defined that amount of time by confirming that multiplayer servers for the game would be taken offline on July 25th, 2018.
“As of 10 a.m. ET, July 25, our multiplayer servers for the game will be taken offline and all stored player data will be deleted. If you own the game in your Steam library, you will still have access to any offline content including the single player campaign. Thank you for playing and supporting Sword Coast Legends.”
– May 25th Steam Announcement
The PlayStation 4 and Xbox One versions most likely followed the same timeline; being removed from sale at the end of 2017 and having their servers shut down in July of 2018. As stated, the game’s offline content and single player campaign remain accessible to those who had already purchased the game.
