It's a somber day for fans of the Final Fantasy series, as another beloved mobile title is set to meet its end. War of the Visions: Final Fantasy Brave Exvius, a spinoff of the main Brave Exvius game, will officially cease operations on May 29th of this year. This closure adds to the growing list of Square Enix mobile games that have been discontinued in recent years.
If you're eager to experience War of the Visions one last time, be sure to dive back into the game before the shutdown date. Interestingly, this closure comes after the announcement that the original Final Fantasy Brave Exvius will also shut down in September 2024.
The decision to shutter War of the Visions may reflect a broader crisis of confidence within Square Enix regarding their mobile game offerings. Despite the company's extensive catalog of smartphone games, including ports of classic retro titles, the market may be feeling the strain of too many spin-offs. This comes at a time when the highly anticipated Final Fantasy XIV is preparing to launch on mobile platforms, providing fans with yet another avenue to engage with the beloved franchise on the go.
While the closure of War of the Visions may signal a bit of overconfidence on Square Enix's part, it's the fans who feel the impact most keenly, losing access to a game that some have undoubtedly enjoyed. However, all is not lost. For those looking to satisfy their RPG cravings, we still have a curated, albeit shrinking, list of the best Final Fantasy games available on mobile devices.
