The mobile strategy tower defense game, Code Geass: Lost Stories, is ending its global run. While the Japanese version will continue, the international servers will shut down on August 29th, 2024. This means no new downloads, in-app purchases, or logins will be possible after that date. The game's global social media presence will also cease on the same day.
Developed by f4samurai and DMM Games, and published by Komoe, the game launched globally in September 2023, falling short of its first anniversary. The reasons for closure aren't explicitly stated, but low download numbers and generally unfavorable global reviews are likely key factors. Many licensed anime gacha games struggle to maintain significant player bases outside Japan due to lower spending habits.
While the global version is closing, the Japanese version remains available on the Google Play Store. Japanese players continue to enjoy the game's blend of RPG, action, and tower defense elements within the popular Code Geass universe.
