Electronic Arts has announced the closure of its “Play4Free” real-time-strategy game (RTS) BattleForge. The game was first launched in 2009, and allowed players to fight against a variety of evil monsters using an army that they assemble themselves via the collection of cards.

BattleForge features single-player and multiplayer gameplay, allowing groups of up to 12 players to complete missions cooperatively, as well as ranked and unranked player-vs-player matches. EA says the game was “the first RTS to combine the social and community aspects of an MMO with an exciting RTS.”
