On their Twitter account, Gundam Evolution announced that it had an important announcement about the game, which they uploaded on their official website. There, they opened their post with words of thanks, thanking players for their continued support. The Executive Producer for Gundam Evolution, Kazuya Maruyama, then announced “the conclusion of Gundam Evolution.” According to the post, the game would shut down on November 29, 2023, at 5:00 PM PST.
Maruyama explained the reasoning behind why they were shutting down Gundam Evolution:
We wanted to create a title that brought FPS fans and Gundam fans together. We challenged ourselves to create an authentic Gundam FPS game that could be played globally.
Unfortunately, we have determined that it is no longer possible for us to provide a service that satisfies our players.
We want to express our gratitude to everyone who has played the game and supported us to this point. At the same time, we would like to sincerely apologize to our fans and players.
