Did you enjoy diving into the world of Netmarble's beat 'em up game, King of Fighters ALLSTAR? It's a shame, then, to hear that it's set to close its doors this year. The announcement surfaced on the official Netmarble forums, and it's definitely a downer for fans.
The action-packed RPG, King of Fighters ALLSTAR, is scheduled to shut down on October 30th, 2024. If you were hoping to use your in-game currency for last-minute purchases, you're out of luck; the in-game store closed its doors on June 26th, 2024.
Why Is King of Fighters ALLSTAR Shutting Down?
King of Fighters ALLSTAR has been delivering high-energy combat for over six years, featuring numerous exciting crossovers with other renowned fighting games. Developed on the iconic King of Fighters series by SNK, it holds a significant place in the history of fighting games.
Despite receiving favorable reviews, with players praising its stunning animations and engaging PvP battles, the game is facing closure. The developers have suggested that they may have exhausted their roster of fighters to introduce, though this might only be part of a larger issue. The true reasons behind the decision remain somewhat shrouded in mystery.
The game has not been without its challenges. Recent issues including optimization problems and unexpected crashes have frustrated some players. Nevertheless, King of Fighters ALLSTAR achieved millions of downloads on both Google Play and the App Store.
If you haven't yet experienced this legendary game, you have approximately four months left to do so. Take this opportunity to engage in some of the memorable battles that the game is known for. You can find it on the Google Play Store before the servers are turned off in October.
