Marvel Heroes Omega REFUND News: Microsoft To Offer Automatic FULL Refunds on ALL Purchases Soon? Obviously outside of an official announcement or until it actually happens, we have to take this at face value, but it looks like Xbox users will be getting a FULL 100% refund of all money spent on the game in the next few weeks


Only started using it a couple of months back & its going already, everything in game is currently dirt cheap with in game points so maybe I'll try out more characters than just Deadpool & if the refund thing trickles to PS4 then I get my money that Deadpool soct back which is nice at least

The end looks sooner than we thought, guess I'd better get a lot of playing done later

Gazillion is dead and Marvel Heroes is shutting down Friday, NOT at the end of the year

Massively OP has received a credible tip from a former Gazillion employee who told us under condition of anonymity that Marvel Heroes will be over significantly sooner than Disney and Marvel previously declared.

The ex-employee says he was terminated as of today, that Gazillion is being shut down entirely, and that Marvel Heroes will sunset this coming Friday, not at the end of the year as originally announced.

The termination letter written by CEO Dave Dohrmann was shared with Massively OP and claims that banking creditors have effectively pulled the plug on the company, leading to the termination of almost every employee at the studio and the apparent renege of benefits including accrued PTO.

A representative for Marvel told us last week that the game would remain online until the end of December, but the letter says that Marvel directed Gazillion to prepare the sunset ASAP; we expect an announcement soon. You can read up on the whole sorry saga in our last summary.

We have reached out to Gazillion, Marvel, and Disney for comment. Our hearts go out to the innocent devs whose holidays and lives just got flung into turmoil.
Update: Former Gaz gameplay engineer Andrew Hair has now publicly cross-corroborated on Twitter parts of the letter we received from our source. “I know a lot of people are upset and wanting refunds for their purchases in Marvel Heroes,” he wrote, “but please keep in mind the developers were not paid out PTO, severance, and our medical insurance is ending in 8 days.”
