Games of Glory

Games of Glory was a free-to-play sci-fi MOBA-shooter hybrid from French indie studio Lightbulb Crew, pitting teams of three to five "Clone" heroes against each other across capture-point matches. Despite a persistent-universe faction feature added in 2016, the core game was played in short, session-based matches rather than a persistent shared world. Lightbulb Crew shut the servers down on March 26, 2021, citing difficulty attracting a large enough player base.

Catalog note

Not a persistent MMO

  • Players who enjoy a MOBA-shooter hybrid — Games of Glory swapped traditional lane-farming for real-time aim and fast engagements.
  • Fans of small, French indie studios experimenting with genre blends before pivoting to other projects (Lightbulb Crew went on to make Othercide).
Before you play

Things to consider

  • This is a session-based match game rather than a persistent shared-world MMO, closer in structure to a MOBA than a true MMO.
  • The game has been fully offline since March 26, 2021 with no revival announced.
