Tribe Nine Shutting in November, Updates Cancelled

Akatsuki Games announced that free-to-play RPG Tribe Nine will end service on November 27, 2025. The company also revealed that planned and in-development updates for the game — which released for PC, iOS, and Android in February 2025 — have been cancelled, with paid in-app and web store item purchases suspended.

Co-developed by Too Kyo Games, Tribe Nine is set in the year 20XX in futuristic Neo Tokyo. It is ruled by a mysterious masked man known as Zero, who requires that everything is settled through “Extreme Games”. A group of young rebels aim to resist Zero’s rule, using techniques and gear inspired by their favourite game, Extreme Baseball (XB). Regular battles feature three-person parties where players control a single character, with each playable character having their own unique skills, actions, and play style. Meanwhile, exploration sees players navigating a 2D pixel overworld where they can find treasures, mini-games, and side quests.
