Warner Bros. Games is shutting down its mobile title, Mortal Kombat: Onslaught, less than a year after its release. The game was removed from the Google Play Store and App Store on July 22nd, 2024. In-app purchases will be disabled on August 23rd, 2024, with servers officially going offline October 21st, 2024.
The reasons behind the shutdown remain unannounced, though it follows NetherRealm's recent closure of its mobile games division, which also handled Mortal Kombat Mobile and Injustice. This suggests a potential shift in the company's mobile gaming strategy.
Refunds for In-Game Purchases?
The developers haven't yet clarified their policy regarding refunds for in-game purchases. While they've promised further information, details on refunds for in-game currency and items remain unavailable. Players are advised to monitor the official X (formerly Twitter) account for updates.
Mortal Kombat: Onslaught, released in October 2023 to commemorate the franchise's 30th anniversary, offered a unique take on the Mortal Kombat universe. Unlike previous fighting-focused titles, it blended action-adventure combat with a cinematic storyline, drawing comparisons to free-to-play mobile MOBAs. The game centered on Raiden and the player's team thwarting Shinnok's power grab.
