Final Fantasy Online Shut Down
Final Fantasy XI and Final Fantasy XIV, the online versions of the popular RPG franchise, have been shut down temporarily following the devastating earthquakes in Japan last week.
The Japanese government has urged citizens to conserve energy, seeing as its nuclear reactors are all offline following the quakes. There is even a danger of a nuclear meltdown, according to various news reports.
Square Enix has answered that call, shutting down the servers for its popular MMOs.
"Due to the continuous earthquakes occurring in the eastern regions of Japan since 11th March, the power companies in Japan have encouraged everyone to cooperate by conserving as much energy as possible as it is feared there will not be enough power supply," Square Enix said in a statement to Eurogamer
“Based on the current situation, we have decided to shut down the game servers temporarily, and therefore to suspend services of Final Fantasy XIV, Final Fantasy XI, and PlayOnline temporarily."
Konami has also decided to suspend Metal Gear Online for the time being.
