That's it, it's done, finished. Harebrained Schemes have announced that their turn-based mech strategy game BATTLETECH is done, with a last patch coming this month.

After many patches and three big expansions across, the BATTLETECH saga is coming to a close nearly two years after the full release. Speaking in a fresh update on their Kickstarter, they said "Now, with our season pass at an end, HBS is going to focus on two brand new non-BattleTech projects. Our last free update, BATTLETECH Update 1.9, will release in late February. After that, BATTLETECH will continue to maintain customer support.".

Harebrained co-founder Mitch Gitelman also released this video:

They also released another video with a timeline of the project structure, which was actually quite cool.

With them moving onto two new projects, we will be keeping a close eye on what they're up to. Since they supported Linux with multiple games and they're now owned by Paradox Interactive who are quite a Linux-friendly publisher most of the time too. Exciting to find out what they're up to!

If you wish to pick up BATTLETECH it's available for Linux from Humble Store, GOG and Steam.
