Free to Play Title Destiny of Spirits Shutting Down June 30th 2015

Sony has confirmed that free-to-play title Destiny of Spirits on the PS Vita will be closing down its servers on June 30th 2015. For those that have invested money in the game, their Orbs will expire when the service closes.

A statement from the Development & Operation Team reads:

Thank you very much for playing Destiny of Spirits.

We regret to inform you that Sony Computer Entertainment will be ending service of Destiny of Spirits on June 30, 2015 (Tuesday). After this date, you will not be able to play or access the game, and all unused Destiny Orbs will expire.

Our goal when we released this title in March of last year was for players around the world to utilize the Vita’s network capabilities for a fun, new game experience. The global response has been incredible, and we have achieved over one million downloads. We appreciate all your support.

One final patch (v1.12) will be released for the game which will bring back past Raid bosses for players to fight. The sale of Destiny Orbs will also cease from the end of April in Europe and Japan, but they will remain on sale right until the last day in North America.
