LawBreakers Publishes Roadmap in the face of Dwindling Player Numbers

LawBreakers may not be doing so well on Steam, with Steam Charts placing the game at a rather paltry 260 concurrent players. There are of course games with far lesser players out there, but for what paints itself as a fast-paced team-based shooter, LawBreakers isn't doing so well.

But, never fear - content roadmaps are here! In a bit of a move to boost moral, and maybe try to attract some more players, LawBreakers has announced three new maps, a competitive league, a new class, and a personal letter from the developers regarding the small player base numbers.

The big question everyone is asking is about CCU… we are all acutely aware of this and realize that it is an issue that not only impacts gameplay, but community morale. Depending on your region, we’ve seen how it takes some people longer than others to find a match, and we’re working around the clock to improve this by optimizing the game, adding lots of new content and onboarding to increase the number of players.

When we made LawBreakers, we did so with a long lifecycle in mind. We have planned and designed new features to bring new players into the action every month also to challenge and excite LawBreakers players. This dual pronged approach is actually a design philosophy that we will implement every post-launch update: make the game better for those who already have it, and to make the game more exciting and appealing for those who don’t.

You can read the full roadmap for LawBreakers here, which is expected to carry through the rest of 2017, and perhaps into the first few early weeks of 2018, if unforeseen circumstances should arise.
