GameArt Studio announces they are shutting down Quantum Rush Online and will merge its multiplayer elements into the recently released Quantum Rush Champions to prevent confusion about their futuristic racer. Now the only confusion is how to accomplish this, as they are frank in admitting they don't have how this will work completely worked out yet:

Since last week the full version of the future racer Quantum Rush: Champions is available on Steam. The Quantum Rush developer team from Berlin has decided to transfer in medium term the multiplayer elements from Quantum Rush: Online to Quantum Rush Champions, to develop Quantum Rush: Champions towards players being able to play the game together with friends.

How exactly this will be implemented is not yet known. The basic idea came from the community in the first place, as many fans had asked if and when they would have the chance to play Quantum Rush: Champions together over LAN.

The idea to introduce a mutliplayer part for Quantum Rush: Champions will be of advantage for interantional players as playing with Quantum Rush Online, due to the servers being placed in Germany, led to some shortcomings.

But this means as well that Quantum Rush Online is put on ice and the servers are swithced off, to bundle all resouces to press ahead optimally with the further development of Quantum Rush: Champions.
