For those who missed the news. Unite shut down operations in the Netherlands and Belgium on November 30th due to the gatcha systems in the game not being compliant with gambling laws in said countries. Instead of doing something about the shady system, they just gave us the middle finger and shut down operations.

If they simply did not have so many gotcha mechanics, then maybe the menus would be bearable, AND they wouldn’t be considered nearly gambling.

My fellow dutchies, The end is not yet in sight. If you download any free vpn. (if Apple also change appstore location in settings to a different location). You can use that to update the game just once. After that you're free to play the game again without extra steps. I tried it both on android and Apple. Not sure about switch. But I'm from NL and to this day I'm still playing it without issues :)

Boycotted the game as soon as the news dropped. I guess it's definitive now.

Hm they were forced to shut down due to their money grabbing mechanic, to combat this issue they ADDED more so they can make the money theyd have made pre shut down

That’s so sad, gatcha totally sucks and it’s sad to lose precious playerbase over some useless lootboxes

Classic Unite, some good things and some bad. The bad is usually balance, the playerbase, and matchmaking. Not much has changed really.

Got to play out a few final games with a long time viewer from one of the regions shutting down today. Super fun silly games of Unite. Makes me sad to see them go.
Shout out to Gold Leaf Snivy!!
