Midnight Society, the game development studio co-founded by the popular streamer Guy 'Dr. Disrespect' Beahm, has officially announced its closure after three years of operation. The studio, which also boasted veterans from renowned franchises like Call of Duty and Halo such as Robert Bowling and Quinn Delhyo, shared the news on a post on X. "Today we are announcing Midnight Society will be closing its doors after three incredible years, with an amazing team of over 55 developers," the statement read. They also reached out to the gaming community, inquiring if any studios are currently hiring and could offer employment opportunities to their team members.

The studio's flagship project, Deadrop, was set to be a free-to-play first-person shooter (FPS) game, leveraging the team's extensive expertise. Originally targeting a 2024 release, the game unfortunately missed its launch window. Deadrop was envisioned in a unique fictional universe where "the 80s never ended," featuring characters with Daft Punk-like helmets wielding an array of weapons including guns and swords. The gameplay was designed as a PvPvE style extraction shooter, promising a thrilling experience.
