Lost Crusade 2 to Shut Down January 29, 2026; In-App Purchases Disabled

Blueprint Inc. announced on January 17 that Lost Crusade 2 will end service on January 29, 2026. The romance-focused RPG, originally released as Lost Crusade in 2014 and rebranded in 2018, will remain playable through the end date, but the developer said it will disable in-app purchases ahead of the shutdown so players have an opportunity to spend any remaining premium currency, known in-game as diamonds.

The notice made clear there will be no refunds and that the studio will not be offering an offline version of the game once servers close. For players who have invested time and money into story routes, character unlocks, and seasonal events, that means ongoing access will cease when the service ends and any unspent virtual currency will effectively expire after the shutdown.

Practical implications are straightforward. If you have diamonds in your account, plan to spend them before January 29; with IAP disabled, the only way to use that currency will be in-game purchases enabled while the servers remain active. Check your inventory and account balance now, prioritize story content or items you want to keep, and finalize any event or romance arcs you care about. Back up screenshots, chat logs, and any collectible records you want to preserve, because saved progress tied to servers typically becomes inaccessible once a live-service title goes offline.

Lost Crusade 2’s closure is part of a broader churn in the live-service mobile market, where sustaining long-running multiplayer or connected experiences can be costly. Developers balance ongoing content, live operations, and monetization against a shifting player base, and titles that can’t meet those economics often face sunset. For romance RPG players, the loss is both narrative and practical: character routes and limited-time outfits or items frequently disappear without a local or offline fallback.

Community channels will be important in the coming days. Look to official Blueprint Inc. announcements for any final operational details, and use fan-run forums and social spaces to coordinate farewell runs, share screenshots, and trade tips on the best ways to use remaining diamonds. If you have unresolved purchases or account questions, contact the developer’s support channels directly; the notice stated refunds will not be issued, but support can confirm account details.

For players emotionally invested in characters and endings, treat the next ten days as a closing chapter. Spend diamonds, save your memories, and check official channels for any last-minute updates before Lost Crusade 2 shutters on January 29, 2026.
