Kim Kardashian: Hollywood is closing after 10 years.
Kim Kardashian has just announced she will be shutting down her mobile game, Kim Kardashian: Hollywood. The app has been removed from mobile app stores, marking the end of nearly a decade of a once hugely successful game that attracted millions of players and generated massive revenue for the star.
Although not widely known as a game developer, Kim Kardashian: Hollywood's 2014 launch was a resounding success. In just two years, the game had been downloaded over 42 million times and played a total of 35,000 times. Kim Kardashian: Hollywood allows players to create their own characters and embark on a journey into the glamorous world, undertaking various challenges and dating A-list celebrities as they rise to fame.
Nearly 10 years after its launch, Kim Kardashian: Hollywood will officially close on April 8th. The game has been removed from the iOS and Google Play app stores, so new players will not be able to experience Kim Kardashian: Hollywood before the servers are permanently shut down. Kim Kardashian herself announced the closure of her mobile game, thanking fans for their support but stating it was time to 'focus energy on other passions.' Players currently accessing Kim Kardashian: Hollywood will now receive a warning about the game's impending closure, encouraging them to use up their K-stars (in-game currency) before they can no longer access the game.
Official announcement regarding the discontinuation of the game.
Kim Kardashian: Hollywood features numerous mini-transactions for players who want to customize their characters. K-stars allow players to purchase various items, from clothing to furniture, houses, pets, and energy. Although Kim Kardashian has expressed a dislike for mini-transactions, her mobile game used them to generate over $200 million in its first year, with approximately $45 million going to her personally. With Kim Kardashian: Hollywood nearing its end, some players have expressed regret that they will no longer be able to enjoy the in-game items and rewards they purchased previously.
For those who were once captivated by Kim Kardashian: Hollywood and are looking for a new and engaging simulation game, consider Sims FreePlay or Stardew Valley. While lacking real-life celebrities like Kim Kardashian: Hollywood, these games still offer plenty of customization options for players to create their own characters and build their reputation in a fascinating world.
