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 on August 23rd, 2024, with servers officially going offline on October 21st, 2024.
The reasons behind the shutdown remain undisclosed. However, NetherRealm's recent closure of its mobile games division, which also oversaw Mortal Kombat Mobile and Injustice, suggests a potential shift in the company's mobile gaming strategy.
Refunds for In-Game Purchases:
NetherRealm Studios and Warner Bros. Games have yet to provide details regarding refunds for in-game purchases. They've promised further information soon and advise players to monitor 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 combat with a cinematic storyline, drawing comparisons to free-to-play mobile MOBAs. The game centered on Raiden and a player-assembled team thwarting Shinnok's bid for power.
