• SAGA Is Shutting Down [UPDATED] •

5 March 2016

We are no longer shutting down the servers!

Read all the details here.

OLD Post:

To our loyal fans:

Sadly, in our 8th anniversary month, I am forced to announce the worst news in SAGA history. Due to a lack of interest in the game, we are shutting down our servers for good. For some, this probably comes as no surprise, as our population has been steadily declining for the past few years. Now, the population has plummeted below the point where we can afford to keep the servers running. And even though we've all been volunteers running the game for no pay for the past 5 years, there's no money left to host the servers and maintain and host the website (constantly battling spammers and hackers).

Unfortunately, since there is no money left, we are not able to offer any refunds. We will, however, keep the store open and sell Saga Credits at a greatly reduced price for those who want to show their support for us or open some booster packs for the last time.

The servers will be shut down on April 29, 2016 at 2:00 PM MT. After that time, you will no longer have access to your account, nations, or cards.

A letter from Ayrik:

What an amazing rollercoaster of a journey it has been running SAGA for you. It has been my privilege to know so many dedicated and passionate people, and it is deeply saddening to see that go. Thank you all who have helped throughout the years. It takes an absurd amount of manpower to run a persistent online game, and without you, we never would have made it this long.

I specifically want to thank our community director, Deszeraeth, who has been a *huge* help in advocating our amazing community throughout the years. Without his help, we would surely have shut down the game years ago.

Also, there are many long-term, dedicated players that stuck with us through the end that deserve a mention and a huge thanks for rounding up newcomers, making them feel welcome, and keeping people coming back to play with their friends.

Leonisi, guild master of The Einherjar, and Grandmaster of SAGA. I commend you for sticking it out until the end and for your dedication to helping out newcomers.

Hamme R, who also deserves respect for sticking it out, raiding territories until the very end I'm sure.

Slyrix, the most dependable guide around, and who was always there to give me advice from the mind of a SAGA veteran.

And to those who didn't stick around but always came back: Woodlanders, Brutal Prodigy, Axe, Twonstermonster, Elrandor, Urwendor, Michi, and even Conan Destroyer.

I'm sure I missed a ton of you, but I really appreciate you playing the game and making the community a great place to enjoy. You will be forever etched in my memories.

Farewell my friends. And may we meet again.

If you would like to contact me for anything SAGA related, you can message facebook.com/playsaga on Facebook, tweet to us on Twitter @playsaga, or email the infamous support (at playsaga.com of course).
