The End
On July 8, 2010, Aeria Games announced that they could no longer support the running of Project Torque, and that the game would be completely shut down on August 2, 2010. Aeria also stated that they will hold a series of events, refund AP(Aeria cash currency) to players who had spent AP in the past 90 days, and even grant access to "hidden content" that had never been released before.
On July 29, 2010, Invictus announced a new publisher for Project Torque. The game would be called HEAT Online, and would be hosted by the publisher, Innologin Ltd. The publishers are allowing people to try the game as guest accounts before registering under the Innologin service.
On July 31, 2010, Aeria Games shut down the servers for Project Torque. The download for the game was taken down shortly after.
On August 1, 2010, the Project Torque forums were shut down except the general discussion area. Aeria Games left open a "Project Torque Community" section on their forums for the players to stay in touch.

Famous quotes related to the end:
“This might be the end of the world. If Joe lost we were back in slavery and beyond help. It would all be true, the accusations that we were lower types of human beings. Only a little higher than apes. True that we were stupid and ugly and lazy and dirty and, unlucky and worst of all, that God Himself hated us and ordained us to be hewers of wood and drawers of water, forever and ever, world without end.”
—Maya Angelou (b. 1928)
“There is no calm philosophy of life here, such as you might put at the end of the Almanac, to hang over the farmer’s hearth,—how men shall live in these winter, in these summer days. No philosophy, properly speaking, of love, or friendship, or religion, or politics, or education, or nature, or spirit; perhaps a nearer approach to a philosophy of kingship, and of the place of the literary man, than of anything else.”
—Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
