The success achieved by Pokémon GO is too complicated to replicate. There are not a few video games that have tried to imitate his proposal and have not managed to succeed. Niantic itself, creators of this title, also tried it with Harry Potter: Wizards Unite, but it is seen that the name of such a well-known franchise has not been enough.
The lack of news or news of the game did not indicate anything good and now we know why. The company has announced that servers will close their doors forever on January 31, 2022. However, before then, the work based on the Harry Potter universe will be removed entirely from the App Store, Google Play and Galaxy Store on December 6.
This means that only those who have the title installed on their mobile devices will be able to continue playing until the end of January next year, since deleting it will mean that it will not be able to be installed again, although from February it will be impossible to play again. At the same time, it will be the same December 6 when internal purchases will be eliminated.
Niantic has stated on its official blog that not all video games are designed to last forever. Therefore, your idea is that the plot put its full stop with a narrative arc that will take place with a series of events throughout the next few months of the game’s life ahead, with events based on The Mystery of the Prince and The Deathly Hallows.
Finally, the team wanted to thank all users for their support and promised that they will use everything they learned with the newly launched Pikmin Bloom, with Transformers: Heavy Metal and with the nine games and applications you have in development. All of them will arrive bit by bit beginning in 2022 with Niantic’s commitment to create more incredible worlds in new and unique ways.
