Amazon has pulled its first major game release, putting it back into a testing phase after poor feedback from players.

Axar.az reports citing foreign media.

Free-to-play shooter Crucible is now being put back into "closed beta" - a pre-release stage with a limited number of players.

Current players will be part of the beta, but new players will be unable to download the game without an invite.

Amazon said it had listened to player feedback and would "continue to make the game better".

In May, when the game was about to be released, Amazon Games vice-president Mike Frazzini told the BBC the company wanted "to make games that resonate with a very large audience of players".
