Japanese mobile giant DeNA has announced it is closing down its Transformers title Battle Tactics this May
Posting on the publisher’s forums– as spotted by Seibertron–an admin revealed that Battle Tactics was to cease operations in the coming months.
In addition, the admin – Nick – announced a timeline of what is to come. No new content or updates are being released as of yesterday, February 25th. Furthermore, there will be no in-game events until the Grand Finale, which will start on March 11th.
That will end on May 12th. Servers will be turned off and support closed.
It’s with a heavy heart I announce that we have made the tough decision to sunset Transformers: Battle Tactics,” DeNA said.
This was not a decision made lightly, but one that had to be made. It’s been quite a ride thus far, and while things are coming to an end, there is still more to look forward to. We’ve got a Grand Finale event in the works that’s sure to put a smile on the face of any TFBT fan. Every battle will be rewarding, and you will be able to get all of your favourite characters in the game.”
Nintendo announced a partnership with DeNA last year to make and release mobile game. If you want to know a bit more about DeNA, MCV spoke to the firm last year.
