NCSoft has announced the end of service (EOS) for its multiplayer online battle arena (MOBA) game, Battle Crush. This is surprising, given the game never reached its full release. Following a global test in August 2023 and early access in June 2024, the game is shutting down just months later.

Battle Crush Shutdown Date:

The game's servers will be taken offline on November 29th, 2024. In-game purchases have already ceased. However, refunds are available for purchases made between June 27th, 2024, and October 23rd, 2024.

Android and Steam users 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 inquiries. Social media and Discord will close on January 31st, 2025.

An Unexpected Closure:

The EOS announcement is understandably disappointing for players who invested time and effort into Battle Crush. While enjoyable, the game suffered from some gameplay issues. The controls felt somewhat stiff, and the pacing could have been improved. These shortcomings ultimately contributed to the decision to end service.

You can still download Battle Crush from the Google Play Store before its complete shutdown. For more gaming news, check out our next article on Black Desert Mobile's autumn season, featuring story-driven quests.
