Highguard Developer Wildight Entertainment Announces Layoffs Less Than a Month After Release

From the moment it was announced, Highguard has faced criticism. Revealed as the final game shown at The Game Awards 2025, it disappointed many gamers who were tired of games that constantly require ongoing purchases. Despite this negative reaction, Highguard launched on January 26th. However, it didn’t meet player expectations, and the number of people playing on Steam quickly dropped after launch – peaking at 97,249 according to SteamDB. The developer had planned to add more content after launch, but those plans are now uncertain.
