Spokko developers, the CD Projekt studio that created the game, thanked players for their time in the free game, adding that the global community “defeated over 100 million monsters”.
“We are proud that we were able to create a location-based AR experience that captured what it was like to be a witcher in real life,” the studio added.
the witcher: Monster Slayer will be available on Google Play Store and iOS App Store until January 31st. “Starting February 1, the game will undergo major changes, leading to the closure of the game,” Spokko’s team said.
According an FAQ, this means that there will be no new content (monsters, armor or quests) and that players will no longer be able to make in-app purchases with real money. The in-game market will remain active for players to spend any in-game currency they have through June 30.
The Witcher: Monster Slayer launched for iOS and Android devices on July 21, 2021, although it was first revealed with a trailer in August 2020. News of the shutdown comes two days after CD Projekt Red announced that the taking control of Gwent: The Witcher’s Card Game would be extinguished by the end of 2023.
