Star Wars Hunter Publisher Zynga has announced plans to completely shut down the game just nine months after its release, and it appears to have launched plans for a PC version of Steam.
Nintendo Switch and IOS and Android launched a naturally developed, freely downloaded team-based battlefield game on Nintendo Switch and Android in June 2024. IGN Star Wars: Hunter Review Returned 7/10. We said: “Star Wars: Hunter’s easy PVP fun is like a party on Death Star: impressive, but probably not where you want to hang out for too long.”
It seems that the comments are prescient Zynga announces “After careful consideration,” it decided to update the final content of Star Wars: Hunters on all platforms will be released on April 15, and the game will still be available until October 1, 2025.
“We understand that this news may be disappointing and want to assure you that this decision has not been made easily,” Zynga continued. “Your passion and dedication to the game and its community means the world to us and we are committed to providing visibility and updates throughout the transition.”
Here is the logistics: March 25, the fifth season will be extended for three weeks. Zynga will reopen the season's event and shopping bundles, and the ranking season will be extended, giving players more time to enter the Kyber 1 rankings.
On April 15, the final content update for the game will be released for free, and in-game purchases will be disabled on all platforms. New support for Hunter Tuya will be added to the game as part of the final update. Tuya will be available for all users at once for free and available for free, as well as a range of additional in-game content. Zynga will continue to run the final ranking mode rankings for players to compete and run all battlefield and game modes in rotation.
Then, on October 1, the online server will be officially shut down, and Star Wars: Hunter will no longer be playable.
No mention of the PC version, Announced to be launched this year with steam on early access tablesin the closing notification. Its Steam page now includes a notification that the game is “no longer available on the Steam Store”.
Take-Two owns Zynga, known for its mobile games from Farmville, Word of Friends, and CSR racing, but with Star Wars: Hunter, it branched out to comfort for the first time. Similarly, Star Wars: Hunter was originally the first Zynga released game to be released on PC.
“The success of Star Wars: Hunter for Mobile and Nintendo Switch Devices has led to our decision to expand the game to PC,” Yaron Leyvan, executive vice president of Games at Zynga, returned to November in November.
“This is something our fan community has been asking for and we are happy to welcome more players to Vespaara.
There are still many Star Wars video games, including Respawn Entertainment's third Star Wars Jedi game and BIT Reactor Round-based Tactical Game to be Showcased in Star Wars Celebration 2025.
