Compared to Nintendo’s other mobile endeavors, Dr. Mario World never quite seemed to take off. While there was an indescribable joy in seeing what Mushroom Kingdom mooks would suddenly attain their medical license to help bust viruses, it just couldn’t compare with the likes of Mario Kart Tour and Fire Emblem Heroes. As such, it’s set to join Miitomo on a farm upstate in just a few months.
End of service notice: The Dr. Mario World game's service will end on Oct. 31, 2021. Thank you very much to the players who have supported the game. For details, please check this link: https://t.co/fC5qnRnLFD

October 31st appears to be the final day that players will be able to access Dr. Mario World itself. Beginning November 1st, an end of service notice will instead appear in the app, with the game no longer popping pills. As of today, July 28th, the game’ premium currency (diamonds) will no longer be purchasable.
Anyone who was truly taken with the puzzle game won’t be completely without their medical records. A web page titled Dr. Mario World Memories will open sometime after November 1st, letting players review their play history – presumably records, acquired characters, and other notable stats.

When he isn’t writing for Nintendo Wire, Ricky’s anticipating the next Kirby, Fire Emblem, or if the stars ever align, Mother 3 to be released. Till then he’ll have the warm comfort of Super Smash Bros. to keep him going.
