Cities XL MMO Closing

Dear
Mayors,

First
of all we want to thank you for your support since Cities XL was
released in October of last year, and as far back as October 2007 for some of
you.

In
early 2007 we decided to be those who would make a new offer to City Builder
games fans. Right from the start Cities XL has always been an innovative
project regarding its online dimension. Of course, trying something new always
comes with a risk.

Three
months after the launch we have to admit that the subscription rate is lower
than what we expected and therefore the Planet Offer is no longer sustainable. Not enough
players decided to subscribe.

Therefore, it is with deep regret that we
decided to put an end to the Planet Offer on March 8^th
2010. It will no longer be possible to subscribe to the game starting Monday
February 1^st 2010.

Nevertheless the Cities XL adventure goes
on! Cities XL will evolve into a fully single player game. As soon as march the
Bus will be added for free in the solo game. At the same time we also keep on
working on new content and new features to keep on improving Cities XL.

We
do realize that some of you were real fans of the Planet Offer, and loved to be
able to visit other player’s cities and trade tokens between each other.
There are simply not enough of us.

Thank
you again for your understanding and support.
