Just as I and everyone else thought Closers was done for outside of East Asia last month, the international servers are now back with a new publisher a mere 2 weeks after Closers World (the one that was managed by the now-defunct En Masse from 2017 to 2020 and Naddic (the developers of the game) 3 months after said publisher's bankruptcy until June 2026) was shutdown.
Fast forward 2 weeks after the last update on the other post, the new team under Papaya Play took over the Facebook page and made a post saying that they had started preregistrations for their own version of the game on their website.
Little did they know, players from the original Closers World version have seen everything and started calling them out in the comments of their Facebook post through words and memes.
Turns out, from what I've seen on their Q&A in their own Discord server, they had cooperated with the developers to wipe almost 9 years of data and progress from the original Closers World version to make their players start from scratch again, not to mention having the sheer audacity of calling it a "fresh new global server" when everyone knows that it's a relaunch.
Honestly, knowing the game's history of relaunches in different servers with different publishers (with the JP server going through publishers before going back to HappyTuk after the latter acquired the developers in September 2024 due to financial difficulties) but for this instance, since it has been launched thrice under different publishers, they could've named their version Reopeners Global instead.
That's all about the current situation with Closers, or better, Reopeners Online.
