On November 6, 2023, Cygames announced the World Flipper Japanese version will end on February 20, 2024. The global version will shut down as well, though its end dates haven’t been set yet.
This comes after the Cygames announced it would slow down updates for the mobile game. In preparation of the game’s closure, in-app purchases in World Flipper will cease on December 18, 2023. All billing will be suspended. However, items purchased prior to this date can still be used until the end of service date. It is highly recommended that these items are used before the service’s termination to avoid complications with refunding.
As of November 30, 2023, no additional characters or events will be added to the game. Bosses will cease appearing in mid-December 2023.
Despite the unfortunate news, there is a silver lining to the announcement. Cygames plans to update World Flipper after the end of its service to an offline version. This will allow players can still experience the world and characters of the game.
The management team expressed their deep gratitude for the support from the players of World Flipper. They also hope that the players will continue to enjoy the game until the very end.
Cygames will shut down the Japanese version of World Flipper on February 20, 2024, with the global end following. It is currently available on mobile devices.
