Star Wars: Hunters Shuts Down Before First Anniversary

Star Wars: Hunters has announced its shutdown before even completing a year, yet it will celebrate its one-year anniversary before the final curtain call. The question arises: is it worth celebrating the anniversary of a game on its way out? While the sentiment might be bittersweet, it's a chance for the community to come together one last time.

When Is the Star Wars: Hunters Shutdown?

Zynga, the game's developer and publisher, is rolling out a final content update on April 15th, introducing the new Support Hunter, Tuya, available for free. On the same day, in-game purchases will be disabled.

Ranked Mode will remain active until the servers shut down, and events from the season will be rerun. If you have any unspent Crystals, now's the time to use them as no refunds will be issued.

It Isn’t Shocking

The lack of major console support and a tepid reception didn't help its case. Even the game's design choices raised eyebrows. With a universe as rich as Star Wars, the decision to focus on generic original characters rather than iconic legends was a missed opportunity.

If you've uninstalled the game but are considering one last playthrough, you can still download it from the Google Play Store until the shutdown date.
