Bullet Run was a free-to-play online multiplayer first-person shooter video game developed by German studio ACONY and published by Sony Online Entertainment in 2012.[1][2][3]
On 1 February 2013, Sony Online Entertainment announced that the game would be shut down on 8 March 2013. The game was shut down at 12:00PM ET. SOE refunded all the platinum memberships starting 1 February 2013.[4]
The game takes place in a staged reality TV show studio where contestants battle in a televised arena with cameras and commentators on the sidelines capturing the battle to be broadcast worldwide. Combatants battle to achieve worldwide fame and glory.[5]
Bullet Run features online team based multiplayer combat. Up to 20 players can battle in one of the game's 5 maps called 'arenas.'[5] The game included three game modes, Team Deathmatch, Search & Destroy, and Dominion (which is similar to King of the Hill). More game modes were also planned until developers announced the game was to be shut down. Players also can wield experimental and exotic weapons. Players may use four abilities called skills that are unlocked as a match goes on. Upon killing another player, players can use the keyboard to taunt the losing player, earning the player "heat", the game's in-game currency.[6]
