TL DR: The servers were officially shut down but Atari recently purchased the rights to the game so there's a chance it'll be back in the future



Slightly long story, Awesomenauts meant a lot to me, played it since release on xbox/xbone and I followed every patch of the game eagerly awaiting who'd they add next and I loved the game's characters and gameplay loop, made many friends, many memories, many cherished moments of my childhood are attached to this game. The past few years may have been incredibly hard for this game (left in a state where it was not getting updated and arguably was at its most unbalanced) but I still loved it and still put another 300 hours into the game on this account just to relive some childhood memories. There's just no game like Awesomenauts, I HATE mobas but this game's mixture of platforming and simplified moba qualities blended together to create a super fun take on the genre and the characters were so lovable, the music rocked, and I deeply enjoyed every moment in its hayday.


Atari recently did purchase the rights to Awesomenauts and while a part of me wants this game to get more updates if Atari does bring it back after their acquisition of the IP I just want to see the servers back up at the very least.


I'll be waiting.....
