Euro Mir

The Italian games company Game Network (originally owned by Digital Bros) was responsible for the operation of the European version of the game. Game Network originally had their own satellite television channel, but it was later cancelled in 2005 due to lack of funding.
In the 2007 yearly review and the September quarterly review, Digital Bros made it clear that they not only intended to replace The Legend of Mir 2 but also another MMORPG service they provided, the Myth of Soma.
"Revenues from "Legend of Mir" and "Myth of Soma" subscriptions fell from €178 thousands to €32 thousand, and titles will soon be replaced by a new generation of games accessed from the portal for the European Market, http://www.gametribe.com. Construction of the portal will be completed during the first half of the year."[1]
Since early 2005 Game Network's Mir 2 website was rarely updated. The forum itself continued to thrive until February 2008 when the hosting company replaced the default pages of the forum with a notice that they had been closed. The forum and the database powering it continued to operate though without the ability to post it became somewhat of an archive.
January 2009 GNOnline released a statement on their website stating that the Legend of Mir 2, Legend of Mir 3, and the Myth of Soma would all be closing at the end of March.
Unofficial servers became a common scene within the MIR community early in the games history. With the gradual decrease in officially operated services by English speaking communities many websites began to operate servers with additional monsters, items and maps. Today, many servers are in operation.
