Konosuba Mobile Game Closes, Offline Version Rumored

KonoSuba: Fantastic Days, the popular RPG from Sesisoft, is set to conclude its service on January 30th, 2025. After nearly five years, both global and Japanese servers will shut down simultaneously. However, there's a potential consolation prize: an offline version is reportedly under development, preserving the main storyline, key quests, and events. Details on this offline version are scarce, and its release remains unconfirmed.

Refunds and Store Closure:

The developers are handling the shutdown smoothly. Official channels will close on February 28th, 2025, and in-app purchases were disabled on October 31st, 2024. Players can still utilize existing Quartz and in-game items until the service ends. Refunds for unused Quartz or unclaimed purchases from early 2024 are available until January 30th, 2025.

A Look Back at KonoSuba: Fantastic Days:

Initially launched in Japan in February 2020 and globally in August 2021, KonoSuba: Fantastic Days was the first mobile game based on the KonoSuba franchise. Its charming narrative, appealing visuals, and visual novel-style story mode were well-received.

Unfortunately, the game shares a fate common to many gacha RPGs; numerous anime-based games have been discontinued this year, often due to declining player engagement or unsustainable production costs.

With only a few months remaining, now's your chance to experience KonoSuba: Fantastic Days before its closure. Download it from the Google Play Store. For more gaming news, check out our article on Orna: The GPS MMORPG's new Conqueror's Guild for PvP Battles.
