Pocket Mortys Ending April 13 After 10 Years; Rare Mortys, Free Content
Adult Swim Games announced Pocket Mortys will shut down April 13, 2026; developers unlocked content and released rare Mortys so players can enjoy the final months.

Pocket Mortys will end service on April 13, 2026, closing a decade-long run of the Rick and Morty-themed monster battler that launched communities of collectors and grinders. Developers posted to X, saying, 'After 10 amazing years, Pocket Mortys will come to an end.' To give players time to celebrate and collect, the team made in-game content free and released rare Mortys into the wild.
The publisher confirmed there will be no offline version of the game when servers go dark, so anything stored server-side will no longer be accessible after the shutdown. The announcement offered no explanation beyond the developer notice itself, leaving many players to piece together what this means for their collections, leaderboards, and long-standing runs.
Starting immediately after the announcement, previously paywalled or gated content was opened up so players can experience the full catalog without spending. Rare Mortys have been seeded across the game world to encourage final hunts and give collectors a last chance to complete registries. For longtime players, this is the clearest shortage of time to chase elusive variants and finish Morty sets that have defined seasons of play.
Reaction across the community has been mixed but active. Some players celebrated the opportunity to freely capture Mortys they missed, while others expressed sadness over losing a living game that hosted tournaments, PvP scrambles, and shared strategies. Fan groups are already organizing farewell streams, last-run events, and mortality-focused meetups to mark the end of the service window.

The practical takeaway is simple: if you care about your Morty collection, log in and play while the servers remain online. With content free, now is the easiest moment to fill registries and grab rare drops without the usual constraints. Because no offline mode will be released, any hope of preserving the game locally will not be realized by an official release; treat the remaining months as final live play time rather than a transition to an archival version.
What comes next for the community will be player-driven. Expect last-ditch tournaments, shared screenshots of rare catches, and guides for efficiently maximizing what time remains. When April 13 arrives, Pocket Mortys will move from active service to memory, and players have a short window to wrap up collections, coordinate goodbyes, and record the runs they want to remember.
