The popular RPG adventure management game, The Tale of Food, featuring personified food characters, is officially shutting down. Initially launched in China for closed beta in September 2019 and later distributed by Tencent Games, the game's servers will be permanently closed.
The Tale of Food Shutdown Date:
The game will shut down on March 20th, 2025, at 10:00 AM (UTC+8). In-app purchases were disabled starting February 18th, 2025, and new player registrations are no longer possible. The game has also been removed from the Google Play Store. However, existing players can continue to enjoy the game until the servers close on March 20th.
Refunds for In-Game Purchases:
Players who made in-game purchases between January 9th and February 18th, 2025, are eligible for a refund. Contact in-game support or email the developers before March 20th to request a refund. Further details regarding the shutdown terms and conditions can be found on the official The Tale of Food X account.
Server Shutdown Timeline:
It's worth noting that the Japan server shut down in April 2023, followed by the China server in June 2024. This global server closure marks the final chapter for The Tale of Food.
While your time managing a realm of charming culinary characters comes to an end, the official X (formerly Twitter), Facebook, and Discord communities will remain active. These platforms will serve as spaces for players to connect, share memories, and reminisce about their time in the game.
