Did you enjoy diving into the action-packed world of Netmarble's beat 'em up game, King of Fighters ALLSTAR? It's a real downer to hear that it's set to close its doors this year. The official word came through on the Netmarble forums, and it's definitely a sad moment for fans.
Mark your calendars: King of Fighters ALLSTAR will be shutting down on October 30th, 2024. If you were hoping to use those in-game coins, you're out of luck—the in-game store closed on June 26th, 2024.
Why Is King of Fighters ALLSTAR Shutting Down?
King of Fighters ALLSTAR has been delivering thrilling punches and combos for over six years, featuring a wide array of high-profile fighting game crossovers. It's built on the iconic King of Fighters series from SNK, a true legend in the fighting game community.
Despite its popularity and positive reviews, with players raving about its stunning animations and engaging PvP matches, the game is coming to an end. The developers hinted at a possible shortage of new fighters to introduce, but it's likely there are more factors at play. The game faced its share of challenges, including optimization issues and random crashes that frustrated some players. Yet, it still managed to amass millions of downloads on both Google Play and the App Store.
If you haven't experienced King of Fighters ALLSTAR yet, you have about four months left to dive into its legendary matches. Head over to the Google Play Store and give it a try before the servers shut down in October.
