NOTICE: Today NCsoft is announcing that it will be closing down service for Auto Assault at the end of the summer. The service will close at midnight on August 31, 2007. As of today, any player currently in the service with an active billed account will not be billed again. If players have previously purchased time via multi-month billing or time cards that extends their service past July 31, NCsoft will reconcile these accounts appropriately. There will be more announcements coming soon regarding the shut down of Auto Assault and its impact on current accounts.

Update: The developer NetDevil has responded stating they will not be taking over as NCsoft owns all IP related to Auto Assault and simply could not come to an agreement in order to salvage the game.

As Auto Assault passes on it’ll be on of the few to join the ranks of MMO’s such as Asheron’s Call 2 and Earth and Beyond in the massive graveyard.
