“In order for these issues to be addressed fully, gamigo and Dynamight Studios have now resolved to part ways in 2023. This means Fractured Online will cease to be part of the gamigo portfolio and will be operated by Dynamight Studios.”

It will remain in closed development for a bit longer while this split is finalized, and players can transfer account data from Gamigo over to Dynamight Studios. They promise an announcement on just how this will work and when it can begin will come soon.
After this process is complete, they plan to once again restore access through the Fractured Online site for a new, limited test. Once they’ve done that, “the game will be available again on Steam, with no more server wipes planned”.
