GungHo Online Entertainment is winding down its licensed mobile game Disney Pixel RPG in September 2026, while preparing to launch Ninjala 2: The Uncharted Planet for Nintendo Switch 2 in spring 2027.
GungHo Online Entertainment announced on July 1, 2026, that its smartphone RPG Disney Pixel RPG will end service on September 30, 2026, at 11:00 JST. The game launched on October 7, 2024, and will run for about two years. The reason for the closure was not disclosed. Paid item sales stopped on July 1, and sales of Red Crystal payment items, gacha using Red Crystals, and stamina recovery will end on August 19 at 11:00 JST. Blue Crystals will remain usable until the service termination. Unused Red Crystals will be refunded through a dedicated form after the service ends; players are advised to keep their in-game ID and inquiry code. The official website and customer support are scheduled to close on January 13, 2027. Until the service ends, the developer plans to add more main story content and run various in-game events.
Earlier in June 2026, GungHo revealed Ninjala 2: The Uncharted Planet during a Nintendo Direct livestream. The sequel to the 2020 free-to-play Switch game is set for a spring 2027 release on Nintendo Switch 2. It introduces the series' first open world, along with new traversal abilities and co-op play. The two announcements show GungHo shifting away from a short-lived licensed mobile title toward a larger-scale sequel on Nintendo's next console.
