Official website of Sumzap's Kono Subarashii Sekai ni Shukufuku o! Smartphone game Fantastic Days (KONOSUBA: Fantastic Days) revealed on Thursday that the game will end service on January 30, 2025 at 3:00 p.m. JST. Sumzap said it will continue to release the game's main story along with events and campaigns until the service ends. Additionally, Sumzap said it plans to create an offline version of the app after the service ends.
Seisoft also announced on Thursday that the English version of the game will also end its service on January 30. The English announcement did not mention the offline version.
The game launched in Japan in February 2020. Nexon launched the game globally in August 2021, but the game later moved to Seisoft. The game features a fully voiced original storyline, and players can form groups with familiar characters and participate in combat.
The game is adapted from the novel by writer Hirukuma (Reborn as a Vending Machine, I Now Wander the Dungeon) and with illustrations by original KONOSUBA novel illustrator Kurone Mishima. The novel was published in March 2022. Yen Press released the novel in English in July 2023.
The game also inspired a manga adaptation that debuted in Kadokawa's Monthly Comic Alive magazine in April 2022. Kasumi Morino drew the manga. The manga's fourth volume was published on June 21.
