Timi Studio and The Pokemon Company announced they will end service for Pokemon Unite at 9am JST on March 23, 2027. This applies to both the Switch and mobile versions of the game.
The full announcement is available on the game’s official website. In it, the development team thanks players for their long years of support. The Pokemon Unite Aeos Crown 2027 Tokyo event on December 5, 2026 will continue as planned. Also, the guidelines regarding images and videos will no longer be in effect after the game ends service.
Players can no longer purchase gems in the store. You can use what you have until the game ends, though. The game also isn’t accepting new Unite Club memberships, and automatic renewals are suspended. This doesn’t apply to those who already have it.
On November 12, 2026, there will be an update that includes a special event and a library feature. If you download your library data before service ends, you can still look at your Pokemon and Holowear and stuff even after the game ends. However, mind that there won’t be support for the library after the game ends, and this data generally can’t be transferred when switching devices.
Pokemon Unite is a F2P MOBA, as opposed to the turn-based RPG of the original mainline games. It came out in 2021, and as of July 2025, it had been downloaded over 200 million times across platforms (including the mainland Chinese version). The game was popular enough to be used as teaching material in an online class in 2021 to teach children skills like strategic thinking, communication, and teamwork.
Pokemon Unite is readily available on the mobile devices and Nintendo Switch. The game will end service on March 23, 2027. Refunds will be available after the game ends.
