Jump Force to be taken off online storefronts in February, online servers to shut down next August

Jump Force Online Stores Removal and Server Shutdown

The popular fighting game, Jump Force, is set to be taken down from online storefronts in February, with its online servers being shut down in August.

Jump Force, developed by Spike Chunsoft and published by Bandai Namco Entertainment, was released in February 2019. It brought together characters from various beloved anime series such as Naruto, One Piece, Dragon Ball, and many more.

Sadly, fans of the game will no longer be able to purchase Jump Force from online storefronts starting February. This means that both new players and those who intended to buy the game in the future will no longer have the option to do so.

Additionally, the online servers for Jump Force will be shut down in August. This means that the game’s online multiplayer modes, including online battles and cooperative play, will no longer be available after the shutdown. Players will only be able to enjoy the game’s offline modes, such as the story campaign and local multiplayer.

The decision to remove Jump Force from online storefronts and shut down its online servers may disappoint many fans who have been enjoying the game’s online features. It is always disheartening when a game’s online services come to an end, particularly for multiplayer-focused games like Jump Force.

However, it is essential to note that this is not an uncommon occurrence in the gaming industry. As newer games are released and the player base decreases, it can become challenging for developers to maintain the necessary resources to support online services for older games.

While it may be sad news for Jump Force fans, the game will still be playable in its offline modes, allowing players to continue enjoying the exciting battles and crossover experiences provided by their beloved anime characters.

As fans bid farewell to Jump Force’s online features, they can look forward to new gaming experiences and future releases in the esports and fighting game community. The world of esports is ever-evolving, and there will undoubtedly be other exciting titles to explore and enjoy in the future.
