Square Enix has announced that it will be shutting down two mobile games, Engage Kill and Full Metal Alchemist Mobile, in March.
First one sounds much like the current era of uninspired squenix titles with two words in all black with a horizontal line or two on a white background. The second sounds like a brand leeching cash grab.
I don’t know the games, but I know nothing of value was lost.
Good. The less of this gacha shit around, the better for the market.
I don’t see how they think mobile games are profitable. The market is so saturated and the games are all very samey with the same daily log in bullshit.
They are way cheaper to make and if they get popular, it’s a constant revenue stream like FFXIV

Yu-Gi-Oh Cross Duel suffered the same fate. Dead not one year after release.
Now it’s in the hands of a custom server, barely usable thanks to DRM that was hard to bypass.
taking yugioh mobile really blurs the lines between yugioh videogames and the actual card game too much for my taste
Well, Cross Duel was something completely unique and was more like an RPG than the regular game.
oh really? thats p cool
Hey Square Enix, I am sure if you try again, you might succeed.
What do you think was the problems? Not enough micro-transactions?
Maybe they should make another Marvel game
