Codemasters Online Gaming has announced it is to cease its European and North American operations for Korean MMO RF Online.

“It is with much sadness that today we announce our intention to close the European and North American RF Online game servers operated by Codemasters,” stated the publisher.

The statement continues: “Our licence for RF Online is due to expire shortly and unfortunately, despite several weeks of negotiations with CCR, the Korean developers of the title, we have not been able to reach an agreement to renew the contract.

“This means that Codemasters will no longer have the right to operate the service in the Western territories it currently provides service in and therefore we are obliged to shut down all associated game services before the licence expires.”

The last full day of service will be on November 9, 2008, with all RF Online world servers to shut down on the morning of November 10, 2008. Codemasters also notes that the purchase of credits is no longer available and it is no longer possible to create new RF Online game accounts/subscriptions.

The statement concludes: “We’d like to take this opportunity to thank everyone who declared their allegiance and gave us their support with RF Online over the past few years and especially, to thank all the players who spent countless hours with us in Novus.”
