Supercell announced that it would shut down the Squad Busters, and that the final update would go online in December, with a complete stop in mid-2026. Following the short and soft launch of the Battery Team in May 2024, a global launch was launched with the participation of stars Chris Heimsworth, Christine Rich, Olive Cavallow and Zheng Ken.
According to Appmagic data, the Battery Team has cumulatively generated about $68 million in revenue for Supercell and over 55 million downloads. After a good start, the Battery Team lost its monthly income to Supercell in March 2025 under the classic game ” Sea Island Wonders ” , and was given a new title ” Mo.co ” in July. According to Appmagic, its internal purchase income in September 2025 had been reduced to approximately $260,000. In his statement, Supercell explained: “We have always learned from our failures, and the Battery Team is an attempt to implement this concept, particularly from the long-term tests of previous games. We want to move faster and take the risk of learning directly from global players, rather than waiting for years in limited distribution.” “But we finally recognize that there is a deviation in the direction of the game. It fails to meet the high standards of quality of the game between the player and Supercell itself. By early 2025, we will have a key choice: either to accept what is to be done may never be the expected global explosion or to make a major breakthrough in innovation. We chose the latter.” “The introduction of the hero system was the boldest innovation in the history of the game in Supercell’s operation, aimed at redefining the potential of the Battery Team. Despite the best efforts of the team and the continued support of the players, we have yet to find a long-lasting solution to the core issues.”
Supercell adds: “After months of deep reflection, we have made a difficult decision to stop the Battery Team’s initiative. It was not our wish, but it was the original purpose of Supercell to create a lasting game loved by the player.” The in-play function is closed as of this date, and a player who has purchased in-time this year may apply to transfer the balance to another game under Supercell. A faithful player may also receive free gift packs for other games through the Supercell store, based on the total duration of the Blast Team game. The Breakout Team was Supercell ‘ s all-star game-hunter tour on May 29, 2024, bringing together a number of classic game players under Supercell ‘ s flag, using a four-minute fast-paced battle model, integrating tactics, shooting and action elements. Players compete for gemstone resources through formation of teams and respond to random map events and dynamic challenges. The first sale of the Battery Team had achieved good results, with a cumulative global revenue of $150 million for 18 days on the line and an initial income of $1.1 million. The cumulative number of downloads exceeds 30 million, which is officially referred to as “the most successful game”, but later growth is less robust.
