Battle Girl High School Smartphone Game Ends Service
posted on by Jennifer Sherman
The official Twitter account for COLOPL's Battle Girl High School smartphone game announced on Friday that the game will end service on July 31. Players will not be able to access the app after that date. The game will have a collaboration event with COLOPL's Alice Gear Aegis game this summer.
The Battle Girl High School game stopped accepting new players on Friday. Sales of in-game currency also ceased, but all in-game items will remain useable until the game ends service.
The school action role-playing game is set in the year 2045. The world has been contaminated by Irōsu (mysterious invaders who suddenly appeared), and humans find themselves restricted and contained. Standing boldly against these invaders are ordinary girls everywhere, without a powerful army or even weapons. The Shinjugammine Girls Academy is a school for these "Hoshimori" (Star Guardians) destined to fight the Irōsu. The player is assigned to this academy to train the girls and take back the contaminated Earth.
COLOPL launched the game as a free-to-play app (with in-game item purchases) for iOS and Android devices in 2015.
The game inspired a television anime adaptation that premiered in July 2017. Sentai Filmworks licensed the series, and it is streaming on HIDIVE and Crunchyroll.
