Warner Bros. Games is shutting down its mobile title, Mortal Kombat: Onslaught, less than a year after its launch. The game was removed from the Google Play Store and App Store on July 22nd, 2024. In-app purchases will be disabled starting August 23rd, 2024, with servers officially going offline on October 21st, 2024.

The reasons behind the closure remain unannounced, though it coincides with NetherRealm Studios' recent shutdown of its mobile games division, which also oversaw Mortal Kombat Mobile and Injustice. This suggests a potential shift in the company's mobile game strategy.

Refunds for In-Game Purchases:

Players who made in-game purchases are awaiting clarification on refunds for in-game currency and items. NetherRealm and Warner Bros. have promised further information soon, encouraging players to follow their official X (formerly Twitter) account for updates.

About Mortal Kombat: Onslaught:

Released in October 2023 to commemorate the franchise's 30th anniversary, Mortal Kombat: Onslaught offered a unique take on the series. Unlike its fighting game predecessors, it blended action-adventure RPG elements with a cinematic storyline, drawing comparisons to free-to-play mobile MOBAs. The narrative centered on Raiden and a player-controlled team thwarting Shinnok's attempt to regain his power.
