"Tribe Nine Cancelled Just Three Months Post-Launch"

It's rare for me to express true astonishment in writing, but I think I speak for most people when I say I was shocked to learn that Tribe Nine is set to be shuttered. According to a recent news post, the servers will be shut off on November 27th, with any upcoming updates now cancelled and the game's end-of-service (EOS) announced.

This marks a bitter end for Tribe Nine, which just a couple of months ago celebrated surpassing ten million downloads. Inspired by the anime series of the same name and featuring artwork by Danganronpa's Rui Komatsuzaki, the game combined regular action RPG gameplay with the unique Xtreme Baseball boss battles that fans of the series will recognize.

The abrupt cancellation of Tribe Nine adds to a worrying trend over the last few years, where many games have been discontinued within less than a year of their launch. For many fans, the constant threat of EOS can make it disheartening to invest in new releases, fearing they won't last.

TribelessGiven that Rui Komatsuzaki's art has been well-received in other titles like Hundred Line -Last Defence Academy- on different platforms, it's puzzling why Tribe Nine would be cancelled so soon after its debut. This decision could potentially backfire on developer Akatsuki Games.

With another anime-based game, Kaiju No.8: The Game, on the horizon, Akatsuki is likely hoping to attract fans of the existing series. However, casual players might be hesitant, considering Akatsuki's track record. Regardless, for fans of Tribe Nine, this news is far from celebratory.

On a brighter note, there are still plenty of fantastic new releases to explore. Why not check out our latest feature covering the top five new mobile games to try this week? It's a great way to find some of our top picks and keep your gaming experience fresh and exciting.
