“Chao Ke Bo GP Grand Prix” releases its fifth season, the fee system is removed, but it is also the last update | 4Gamers

“Chocobo GP” was launched by Square Enix in March this year, but it was criticized by players for its insufficient racing design and mechanism similar to mobile game class money. Today, less than a year later, the official announcement is that the fifth season will be launched today, which is the last major update. The game server will continue to be open, but no new characters or new maps will be added in the future.

The fifth season will be the same as the current off-season, there will be no season reward levels. At the same time, the virtual token “Mithril” for class fees will also be removed from the Nintendo Shop from now on. The Mithril currently on hand can still be consumed by players (but Cannot apply for a refund), but following January 6, 2023, the Mithril store will be closed and all Mithril will be recycled.

In the fifth season, the items that were originally launched exclusively for purchase with Mithril will also be put on the shelves at the GIL and ticket stores (these two stores are in-game currencies), allowing players to purchase them free of charge. As for the first season to The Mithril props of the fourth season are also being considered to be put on the shelves of GIL and ticket stores one following another.

Simply put, this update is to pull out the entire fee system. But, this is also the end of the game.

In the previous test report, we mentioned that the “Chocopo GP Grand Prix” adopted a puzzling mechanism. Although the payment tokens were used, there was no Gacha in the game, only season tickets and direct tickets. The class gold props that I bought were completely worthless, and I also provoked a whole body of shameless double-faced practices.

It’s just that Waterloo this time will probably make Square Enix put the road bird racing IP into limbo once more.
