“Chocobo GP” was launched by Square Enix in March this year, but it has been criticized by gamers for its insufficient racing design and money-like mechanism of the mobile game class. Today, less than a year later, the official announcement is that the fifth season will be launched today, which is the last major update. The game server will continue to be open, but no new characters or new maps will be added in the future.
The fifth season will be the same as the current off-season, there will be no season reward levels. At the same time, the “Mithril” virtual token for class fees will be removed from the Nintendo Shop from now on. currently available can still be consumed by players (but it is not possible to request a refund), but after January 6, 2023 the Mithril shop will be closed and all Mithril will be recycled.
In Season 5, items originally released exclusively for purchase with Mithril will also be placed on the shelves of GIL and Ticket Shops (these two shops are in-game currencies), so players can purchase them without paying gold. Season 4 Mithril props are also being considered to be placed one after another on GIL shelves and ticket booths.
Simply put, this update will eliminate the entire fare system. But this is also the end of the game.
In the previous test report, we mentioned that the “Chocopo GP Grand Prix” adopted a puzzling mechanism: Although cash tokens were used, there were no Gachas in the game, only season tickets and direct The props of the game. The classy gold I bought was completely worthless, and I also caused a whole body of shameless double-sided practices.
It’s just that Waterloo this time will probably cause Square Enix to put the road bird racing IP back into limbo.
