November started strong with several new game releases, including Slap ‘em UP!, Dead Ahead Enforcers, and Hell’s Paradise Battle. OUTRANKERS launched in Japan, and StarSavior announced its release date for certain regions.

Several mobile games saw changes recently. Goddess Order went offline for an extended, indefinite period, and Ragnarok: Monster World closed down completely. On the brighter side, pre-registrations began for new games like Druid Rising, Siberium, and Dragon Sword. Sword x Staff started a closed beta test, and a new game called Green Light was also announced.

Game updates continued this week with Warframe gearing up for its Android closed beta, Where Winds Meet announcing an iOS technical test, and Palworld Mobile confirming an alpha release in December. However, the beta for Rust Mobile has been delayed until December.

This week was pretty packed! Supercell finally gave us an update on what’s happening with mo.co, which is good to know. It was kinda weird seeing a fake version of Aniimo pop up before the real iOS test even started. On the esports side, GodLike Esports decided to leave the COD Mobile scene, which is a bummer. But KRAFTON is making big moves in India, and they announced three new mobile games that are coming soon – that’s exciting!
