Delisting
Deadman’s Cross was delisted on PlayStation Vita on September 30th, 2015. Just seven months from release, Square Enix updated the game’s PlayStation Store page with the following confirmation:
[Important] End of Service Announcement
Thank you for playing Deadman’s Cross.
After careful consideration, service for Deadman’s Cross will come to an end on Sept. 30, 2015.
Please see the in-game announcement for details on the end-of-service schedule.
Once again, we the staff thank you for your past patronage of Deadman’s Cross.
The Deadman’s Cross Team
Speculation
No explanation was given but it is assumed the player base on the VIta was lacking and Square Enix chose to focus the team’s resources on the Android and iOS versions of the game. Deadman’s Cross celebrated its three-year anniversary in February of 2017 before all versions were shut down on July 31st, 2017. The final message from the team read:
Service for Deadman’s Cross (English version) will come to an end on Jul. 30, 2017 8:00 p.m. (PDT) / Jul. 30, 2017 11:00 p.m. (EDT) / Jul. 31, 2017 3:00 a.m. (GMT) / Jul. 31, 2017 12:00 p.m. (JST).
We wish to thank the many users who played Deadman’s Cross since the start of its service in 2014.
The development and managing team wishes to thank our users for their patronage for over three long years, which allowed service to continue up until now.
