NCSoft has announced the end of service (EOS) for its multiplayer online battle arena (MOBA) game, Battle Crush. This is surprising, as the game never reached its fully polished launch version. Following a global test in August 2023 and an early access release in June 2024, the game is shutting down just months later.
The official shutdown date is November 29th, 2024. In-game purchases have ceased, but refunds are available for purchases made between June 27th, 2024, and October 23rd, 2024.
Android and Steam players can request refunds from December 2nd, 2024, to January 2025. Players should download any desired content before November 28th, 2024, as the game will become inaccessible afterward.
The official website will remain online until May 30th, 2025, for support purposes. Social media accounts and Discord will be deactivated on January 31st, 2025.
The announcement is undoubtedly disappointing for players who invested time and effort. While Battle Crush offered enjoyable gameplay, it fell short of expectations. Some players noted clunky controls and pacing issues, preventing it from achieving widespread success and ultimately leading to its EOS.
Before the game's complete shutdown, players can find it on the Google Play Store. For those seeking a new gaming experience, be sure to check out our next article covering the story-driven quests in Black Desert Mobile's Autumn Season.
