"You can still download and play Legends on all existing platforms and compete online as well as in single-player mode. We will also continue to support the game with monthly reward cards and regular in-game events. New expansions and other future content, however, are no longer under active development. We will continue to provide ongoing maintenance support."

Legends then went through a studio transition in 2022, when development moved from Dire Wolf Digital to Sparkypants.

The post has over 400 comments at the time of writing, showcasing many disappointed players. The servers remain online for now, but if this really is the end for Legends, then hopefully its dedicated community finds equal joy with one of the game's contemporaries.
