Remember Star Trek: Infinite Space? A browser-based free-to-play MMORPG with RTS elements by Gameforge? Well, after being put on hold back in autumn 2011 for lack of publishing support after a significant lay-off, it has now been cancelled, reports GamesIndustry.
“Since autumn 2011 we made many efforts to find a publishing and marketing partner for Star Trek: Infinite Space. Unfortunately, our efforts were not successful. So we have decided with a heavy heart to finally abandon the project Star Trek: Infinite Space. The discontinuation is very regrettable. Unfortunately it happens from time to time that a good concept for a game cannot be implemented as originally planned.” ~Gameforge
It’s sad to see an ambitious project like this getting cancelled. This surely was a blow to the expectations of many Star Trek fans and space game fans in general as the game was shaping up quite nicely.

Man what a shame, it looked really good. Just look at those models!
Yea, quite a bummer. Graphics were excellent and the gameplay looked interesting too. Clearly one title that didn’t deserve to get cancelled. But, money and company policy spoke higher, as always.
KAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHNNNNNNNNNNNN!!!
LOL! :D
I actually don’t mind, that game seemed so crappy. The angle you played from was just one of the things which sucked. Also seemed very repetitive
Me sad. :(
