Squad busters was launched in May 2024 and when it was released million people jumped right into it from the start. When the game was first released there was lots of excitement around the launch and there were a lot of positive response which made supercell believe the game had the potential to stand alongside our biggest hits as the years went bye Supercell realised they were wrong the game did not meet the high expectations that Supercell have for their other games and because of this Supercell has reason to believe that squad busters might never grow into the kind of global phenomenon they dreamed of or took a big creative swing. After months of reflection Supercell have made the extremely difficult decision to end active development of squad busters. So from now on there will be on final update in december 205 which will include part of the content we shared in our recent roadmap. After that the game will remain available to download and available to play for a while longer but we do expect to close it probally in 2026 but not before the middle of the year. While this is not the outcome Supercell hoped for they believe that it is the right decision to stay true to Supercell’s goal of creating games that players can love for years. Squad Busters brought joy to many of us but it did not reach the long term quality bar we hold ourselves to, making games that million players play and remember forever. Supercell team is made up of supremely talented developers and by shifting their energy to both new games and our existing live games, we can continue improving the experiences millions of players already love and ensure that every future Supercell game has the best possible chance to thrive Â
