Today marks the end of an era for fans of KonoSuba: Fantastic Days Global, as the game officially concludes its run on January 30th. With the servers set to shut down, it's time to reflect on the journey and look ahead to what's next.
How Long Did This One Last?
Developed by Sumzap and initially published by Nexon before transitioning to Sesisoft, KonoSuba: Fantastic Days was a beloved title. Despite its charm, the game's lifespan was relatively brief. The global servers operated for 3.5 years, while the Japanese version lasted a robust 5 years. For an anime-based gacha game, this duration is quite respectable, especially considering the declining revenue in recent times.
The developers have shifted their focus to the new Jujutsu Kaisen Phantom Parade gacha game. In the final days of KonoSuba: Fantastic Days, they continued to engage the community with voiced story updates and released a final song just three weeks ago. A farewell livestream in December, featuring Kazuma's voice actor, added a personal touch to the goodbye.
The Japanese version went the extra mile by archiving the entire main story on their YouTube channel, allowing fans to relive the adventures of Kazuma and his quirky team. Additionally, an offline version was made available, enabling players to enjoy the game's story, voicelines, and character collection even after the servers closed.
Unfortunately, KonoSuba: Fantastic Days Global won't have an offline version or a dedicated YouTube channel. However, fans can still visit the Japanese YouTube channel to spend more time with Kazuma, Aqua, Megumin, and the rest of the crew.
This concludes our coverage of the KonoSuba: Fantastic Days Global shutdown. Stay tuned for our next update on Karrablast and Shelmet in the February Community Day of Pokémon Go.
