Yes, you read that correctly, after launching in November 2023 – not even 2 years after release, Black Clover M: Rise of the Wizard King is shutting down. The game will end service in Japan on August 20, 2025, and globally on August 21, 2025. The final update is scheduled for June 26, 2025, featuring content from the Black Clover: Sword of the Wizard King movie, a special event, and two new mages. In-app purchases and new account creation have been disabled, but players can use existing items until the shutdown. Premium Black Crystals can be transferred to another Garena mobile title between August 21 and September 25, 2025.
The official announcement from Garena and Pearl Abyss does not explicitly state the reason for Black Clover M: Rise of the Wizard King’s shutdown.
