Immortals of Aveum: A Multi-Million Dollar Flop
In August 2023, Immortals of Aveum entered the gaming market amidst stiff competition from top-tier titles. Despite a dense roster of games dominating the charts, Ascendant Studios, the developer behind Immortals of Aveum, took a risk with a reported production cost of $125 million. Unfortunately, the gamble didn’t pay off.
Budget Woes and Poor Performance
Early trailers and showcases of Immortals of Aveum generated buzz, but the game’s launch fell flat. It received relatively good reviews across the board but failed to retain a solid player base. The title quickly faded from relevance.
Discounted at Asda: £1 for Immortals of Aveum
Today, a surprising discovery was made by shoppers in the United Kingdom. At Asda, a UK-based supermarket, Immortals of Aveum was being sold for just £1.
The user who shared the news uploaded a rather blurry image as proof of purchase. The game is now out of stock on Asda’s Website, showing a price tag of £0.00.
Ascendant Studios Faces Layoffs
