Classic FPS A.V.A Shuts Down on October 28, Ending an 18-Year Journey

Summary

G.O.P. has announced that the classic FPS title A.V.A (Alliance of Valiant Arms) will officially shut down on October 28, bringing an end to its 18-year run since its launch in 2008. The game, a free-to-play online FPS, divided players into two factions: EU (European Union) and NRF (Neo Russian Federation), with up to 32 players battling in a single room. At its peak, the game hosted around 70,000 matches daily and attracted over 2.8 million players in total. Meanwhile, the developer also revealed that a new-generation upgraded title, AVA RE:BIRTH, is scheduled for release this autumn, remaining in the tactical FPS genre. This news marks both a farewell to a beloved classic and the promise of a fresh chapter for the IP. Veteran players will see the closure as the end of an era, while the upcoming sequel brings renewed excitement. For the industry, the shutdown and revival of a long-running FPS highlight the challenges of live-service games and the potential for intellectual property rebirth in a new form.
