Pokémon Rumble Rush To Shut Down This Summer, Just One Year Since Launch

<p>Smartphone game <a href="http://www.nintendolife.com/games/mobile/pokemon_rumble_rush"><strong>Pokémon Rumble Rush</strong></a> is set to shut down this July, just over a year since it first launched.</p>
<p>The app, which always runs online, will see its service terminated from 22nd July at 01:59 UTC. This means that fans will no longer be able to download, update or even play the game (thanks, <a class="external" href="https://www.serebii.net/index2.shtml">Serebii</a>). In addition, it has been revealed that you’ll no longer be able to purchase the game’s Poké Diamonds, and a refund for unused Poké Diamonds will be available starting from the app’s closure date.</p>
<p>A number of events are still planned to go ahead within the app before that date arrives, but it’s pretty sad – and no doubt <em>annoying</em> for players – to see the game close down entirely after such a short amount of time. Arguments both for and against digital and online-centric games have been done to death, but this sure does serve as a pretty major ‘con’ for online-only experiences. As of 22nd July, we’ll never be able to play the game ever again.</p>
<p>Are you sad to see it go? Does this leave you with any concerns for other online games going forward? Feel free to share your thoughts with us down below.</p>
