The operator announced the closure on October 23 and set the cutoff at 23:59 on November 25, 2026. All data will be deleted. The sites were known as places to publish mods for the TES and Fallout series, and as distribution points for volunteer Japanese localization patches and assets for domestic free games.

With less than three weeks left, creators are resuming distribution on BOOTH, using GitHub as emergency storage, and announcing retirement or suspension on X. Others have posted archive indexes and bulk-download tools, and Google Forms collecting information on free games distributed only through the uploader for a planned note article. The operator warns that mechanical access is overloading the service, and download errors are already frequent.
