Warner Bros. Announces The Shutdown Of Mortal Kombat: Onslaught Just One Year After Its Launch

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 starting August 23rd, 2024, with servers officially going offline October 21st, 2024.

The reasons for the shutdown remain undisclosed, but this 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:

Players who made in-game purchases are awaiting clarification on refunds for in-game currency and items. NetherRealm and Warner Bros. have promised further information, so keep an eye on 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's narrative centered on Raiden and the player's team thwarting the Elder God Shinnok's power grab.
