Earlier today it was announced on the Skylanders Universe Community Blog that the game will be closed down on the 29th of April. In the meantime they've boosted everyone's coins up to just shy of 10 million.

They will however be leaving the mini-games up for people to play, and to kick off this new direction they've added a brand new mini-game called Block Fu.

Im kinda disappointed by this considering how it was a PC game (I'm kind of a PC user...) . But at least we still have swap force to look forward to.
Con: It ends.
Pro: ALL SKYLANDERS AND FURNITURE W/O REAL TOYS!

Everyone should just buy everything they don't have yet from SSU, just so they can be rich.
I HAVE EVERYTHING NOW BUT IT'S ALL GOING TO DISAPPEAR IN LIKE A MONTH

Most MMOs, when gone, even if not the greatest, are mourned with wailing in the wikis, tears in forums, so forth.
This one'll probably just get a "Too bad" or "Meh, no big deal."
At least we get to spend and buy anything we've ever wanted until the universe ends.

The games still won't be as great as they were in Universe because:
So kinda sad about it ending,but let's go buy everything.
- They only let you play 8 different characters.

Noooooooooo!!!!!!
It's sad to see that Skylanders Universe will be gone in a month
I shall rent... ALL THE THINGS
(I said this in another thread) The classic universe, exploding (pretend) into Memory Lane.
memories in the LU... Ah... Good OL days.
But seriously. This is sad.

I wailed at LU's loss. This, not so much.
Typical, won't load past a certain point, everyone must be getting on to party till the end.

im dissapointed cause i worked hard on the coins
NO! WHY?
NOOOOOOOOOO!!!! why do they have to do this? why???!!
It was fun to play when it first came out but I eventually stopped playing it because my laptop struggled to run it. I'll try to log into Universe again before it goes.
:/ i saw this coming... no updates since oktober...
I played it once, then my computer hated it and almost blew up!

Same here, was cool, just was very slow for me. Sad to see it go. (I know the minigames are staying.. but still)

This is the happy memories song:
Aw man..
Never really got into it. Does anyone know why they're closing it down?
O.M.G. The universe will end! What'll happen to my Skylanders?
I never really liked Universe. It was always laggy.
That was unexpected.

Most likely financial difficulties.

If it's laggy, try several browsers, and maybe go into safe-mode temporarily. I'm working on spending up my fortune!

Activision? Financial difficulties?
Anyway I don't miss universe as IT SUCKED.

Go try out Block Fu. It's awesome.
Maybe since SWAP Force features 256 combos, they find it hard to make animations and other stuff for all those SWAP Force Skylanders, plus the new characters.
Well, there goes any chance of me buying future whatever. Time to sell a lot more Giants stuff and learn how to hack my figures to have Hero Level 50.
They never updated it because nobody played because they never updated it. Nobody was visiting so they made no revenue from it and destroyed it... Back in my day, we fixed what was broken, not replace it.

I honestly can't see the point of closing it.
Oh well, it wasn't good anyway.

This stinks. I wish they could add mini-games into the Skylanders website, and Skylanders Universe still lived.
The Microsoft KIN of the game world?
"Have all the money you could possibly have and spend it all before the universe ends"
I hope they replace Universe with a better online game. Always froze and wasnt really fun after a couple hours. I was really sad when Lego Universe ended though...
^This. What good are the webcodes without the Universe? More importantly, will this affect the value of figures when it's gone?

Dude, you'll never be able to spend that whole fortune! I've already bought every bridge, every tree, every statue, every Skylander, every expansion, every gadget, every Skyland theme AND every lair. And yet I'm still up around 9,124,185 coins.
These coins are starting to get annoying, I wish I could just give them to some other players...

I am not sad because my computer stinks anyway.
Well...what do I do now?
thats disappointing although i never went on it (i forgot my password on like, 3 accounts!) but i feel for everyone who did go on it
Activision are now definitely World leaders in backward progression
replacing Universe with a cheap and nasty third rate app type game
once again ripping off customers who have made them millions (**********)
