KonoSuba: Fantastic Days Global Servers Shut Down After 3.5-Year Run

Another gacha game bites the dust. KonoSuba: Fantastic Days Global, developed by Sumzap and published by Nexon (later Sesisoft), officially ended its service on January 30th, marking the end of a 3.5-year run. While relatively short compared to the Japanese version's 5-year lifespan, this is still a respectable run for an anime-based gacha, especially considering declining revenue in recent times.

The developers, having transitioned their focus to the Jujutsu Kaisen Phantom Parade gacha game, maintained active support for KonoSuba: Fantastic Days Global until the very end. This included new voiced story updates and a final song release just three weeks prior to the shutdown. A farewell livestream in December, featuring Kazuma's voice actor, further showcased their dedication.

The Japanese version even went the extra mile by archiving the entire main story on its YouTube channel, allowing players to revisit the comedic adventures of Kazuma and his companions. An offline version was also provided, preserving access to the story, voice lines, and character collection.

Unfortunately, the Global version lacks both an offline mode and a dedicated YouTube archive. However, fans can still enjoy the Japanese YouTube archive for continued access to the KonoSuba cast.

This concludes our coverage of the KonoSuba: Fantastic Days Global shutdown. Stay tuned for our next article on the February Community Day event in Pokémon Go, featuring Karrablast and Shelmet.
