Future of this game

[SonGomi]

Hello, I love the FF VII Universe so I decided to give EC a chance. But i'm scared that the game and its servers will shut down in the next 3-4 years and I will not be able to replay some stuff or use things I unlocked in the future.
Is there any information about how long the servers will run and if there will be an offline mode or something similiar?
Thanks in advance!

They did it with Final Fantasy Dimensions 2.
But seeing as they haven't made offline versions of the plethora of other gacha games they've cancelled, I really wouldn't count on that happening, as nice as it would be.

Especially since Ever Crisis isn't heavily story driven in the first place

Any gacha game reaches EoS eventually. The longest going Final Fantasy gacha to date that is still going is Brave Exvius which is having its 8th anniversary right now. I doubt this game will grow to be that old though.

3-4yrs is pretty good life for a gacha game, most of SQEX gacha games have been cancelled at 1-2yrs. If you can get 4yrs from this you should be happy :) just make sure to play it regular so you can finish the storyline and be done with it before shutdown.

I think because this one is running along the FF7 remake trilogy it has more hope of survival on a short term at least, I don't think they would close it before the next FF7 release. Square seems to keep most of their mobile or gacha games running between 4 and 10 years. 4 Years would somewhat fit with the next FF7 game. They probably have a roadmap for a minimal period then keep it running as long as it makes money.

Because it's FF7 only, there is also a problem, the lack of character. At the speed they are releasing characters, we will probably have the full roster after 1 year of release, so around September or early winter. Vincent is announced and only missing Cid. They could twist things up and give us Rufus and the Turks next year, the models are in the game as enemies already.

Aside from the turks they also have extra characters they can bring in from Crisis Core as this game is supposed to be a compendium of the FF7 media. They might do some crossover event characters too from other FF titles or from other SQEX licensed properties. They can also do special variations of the main crew as time limited banners.

3-4 years? We should be so lucky. I tell myself there's no way they'll sunset the game before Remake Pt3 but honestly I don't have faith it will survive 2 full years
