Toji no Miko servers to be shut down soon

Square Enix has just announced that it will be closing the servers for its Toji no Miko smartphone game on 29 October 2021. That said, the game will live on as a limited offline title that will be made available post closure.

The game first launched March 2018 in Japan where it will have a run of more than three years once it shuts down. Toji no Miko enjoyed moderate success where it had an anime spinoff, which is worth a watch. Synopsis of the show as follows courtesy of MAL:

Throughout history, an elite group of shrine maidens known as “Toji” have saved the world from “Aratama,” strange and malevolent beings bent on destroying humanity. In modern times, these warriors have been assigned to a special police squad to exterminate Aratama. The government has also set up five elite schools across the country to provide young girls the necessary sword fighting skills to eradicate these monsters and eventually join their fellow Toji in protecting the world.

Although Kanami and Hiyori rise to the top of the tournament, their battle takes an unexpected turn, throwing the world of the Toji into chaos. Likely that the Toji are facing betrayal from within, the two are forced to flee the tournament, clashing with former comrades on the way.
