Code Geass Mobile Journey Nears Conclusion

The mobile strategy tower defense game, Code Geass: Lost Stories, is ending its global run. While the Japanese version will continue, the global servers will shut down on August 29th, 2024. This means no new downloads, in-app purchases, or logins will be possible after that date. The game's global social media presence will also cease on the same day.

Developed by f4samurai and DMM Games, and published by Komoe, the game launched globally in September 2023, falling short of its first anniversary. While the developers haven't explicitly stated the reasons for closure, low download numbers and generally unfavorable global reviews are likely contributing factors. Many licensed anime gacha games struggle to maintain a player base outside of Japan, where player spending tends to be higher.

The game, based on the popular Code Geass: Lelouch of the Rebellion anime and manga, blends RPG and action elements with tower defense gameplay. Despite its foundation in a well-known franchise and its genre blend, it couldn't secure a sustainable global player base.

Japanese players can still access and enjoy the game via the Google Play Store. For other gaming news, check out the exciting news about Sky: Children of the Light's Tournament of Triumph!
