"War of the Visions: Final Fantasy Brave Exvius to Shut Down in May"

It's a somber day for fans of the Final Fantasy series, as yet another mobile title is set to close its doors. War of the Visions: Final Fantasy Brave Exvius will cease operations on May 29th of this year, adding to the list of Square Enix mobile games that have been shut down recently. If you're a fan and want to enjoy your last moments with WOTV, make sure to dive back in before the final curtain falls.

As a spinoff to the main Brave Exvius game, War of the Visions ironically follows in the footsteps of its predecessor, which announced its own closure for September 2024. This pattern of closures raises questions about Square Enix's strategy regarding their mobile portfolio.

Square Enix has been facing what could be described as a crisis of confidence with their mobile titles. Despite having a robust catalog of smartphone games, including ports of classic retro games, the company seems to be struggling to maintain the viability of their mobile spinoffs. The decision to shutter War of the Visions comes at a time when the highly anticipated Final Fantasy XIV is set to launch on mobile platforms, suggesting that fans have ample alternatives to enjoy the franchise on the go.

The closure of War of the Visions may reflect an overconfidence in the market, leading to an oversaturation of similar titles. This has unfortunately resulted in the loss of games that many fans enjoyed. However, all hope is not lost for mobile RPG enthusiasts. We still have a carefully curated, albeit shrinking, list of the best Final Fantasy games available on mobile devices to keep you engaged and entertained.
