Konosuba: Fantastic Days Announces Offline Relaunch

KonoSuba: Fantastic Days, the popular mobile RPG from Sesisoft, is ending its service on January 30th, 2025. Both the global and Japanese servers will shut down simultaneously after nearly five years of operation. However, there's a planned offline version in development, allowing players to revisit the main storyline, key quests, and events. Details on this offline version remain limited.

Refunds and In-App Purchases:

The developers are handling the shutdown responsibly. Official channels will close on February 28th, 2025. In-app purchases were disabled on October 31st, 2024. Players can still use existing in-game Quartz and 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. The game featured a charming narrative, appealing visuals, and a visual novel-style story mode, set in a world threatened by the Devil King's army. Despite its positive aspects, the game ultimately faced the same challenges as many gacha RPGs, leading to its closure. Rising production costs and declining player engagement likely contributed to this decision.
