If you\u2019re a big fan of Squad Busters, we\u2019ve got bad news. The multiplayer casual action game from Supercell is shutting down, despite only arriving on Apple\u2019s App Store and the Google Play Store just 18 months ago. The developer isn\u2019t switching the servers off right away, with one final update planned for December 2025, but a new statement suggests that we\u2019ll be saying goodbye before the end of next year.<\/p>\n
For those who don\u2019t know, Supercell is the developer behind massively popular mobile games such as Clash of Clans, Clash Royale, and Brawl Stars. Given the success of those titles, we expected Squad Busters to go on to similarly great heights after its May 2024 launch, but in the developer\u2019s own words, \u201cthe game did not meet the high expectations that both you, our players, and we at Supercell have for our games.\u201d<\/p>\n
Supercell revealed the demise of Squad Busters via a press release on its official website. It also revealed that, as of October 30, 2025, in-app purchases are no longer available. If you\u2019ve spent money on the game this year, you\u2019re entitled to request a transfer of the purchase value to one of the developer\u2019s other games, including Clash Royale and Clash of Clans. You can find the full instructions on how to request to claim the transfer via the Supercell site.<\/p>\n
