Revue Starlight Re LIVE: Curtain Call on September 30th
The mobile game, Revue Starlight Re LIVE, based on the popular anime, is officially shutting down its servers on September 30th, 2024, at 07:00 UTC. After nearly six years on Android, this chapter of the Revue Starlight saga will conclude.
Reasons for the Shutdown
The game's closure isn't entirely unexpected. Over its lifespan, Revue Starlight Re LIVE faced challenges including repetitive events, reused assets, and costly battle passes. Furthermore, narrative inconsistencies, such as the abrupt shift in storyline from The Giraffe to a less engaging plot point involving a girl and her toy bear, contributed to player dissatisfaction. The shutdown affects the global player base, including Japan.
Positive Aspects
Despite its shortcomings, the game boasted a positive reception in certain areas. Its soundtrack, featuring numerous tracks from the anime, and the high-quality 3D graphics and Live2D animations were frequently praised.
A Final Farewell
While the game's lifespan is nearing its end, players still have several weeks to enjoy the remaining content. Developers are implementing several farewell campaigns in August and September, including a "Thank You For Everything" campaign offering ten free daily pulls and a two-month birthday celebration featuring two "New Stage Girl Gacha" events. Those interested in experiencing the game before its closure can download it from the Google Play Store.
