Bakugan Dimensions Shut Down on June 30, 2011!

Last Friday was Friday the 13th indeed. Not only did we have a small power interruption in our street that caused me to read this news too late, there's also "this news" --- the news that Bakugan Dimensions will be shut down permanently on June 30, 2011!

Bakugan Dimensions Special Announcement

Hey Brawlers,

On behalf of the entire Bakugan Team, we would like to thank all of our Dimensions brawlers for logging on and battling online with us. We hope you have had as much fun playing the game as we have had. On June 30, 2011 at 10:59PM (PST), all servers will be shut down permanently. The servers will be functioning as normal until this time and we hope you will continue to enjoy the online world of Dimensions until then.

We hope you are excited about the new season of Bakugan and all that it brings - from the all new Mechtogan, Mechtogan T.itans, and BakuNano to Die Cast Bakugan and to the stuff we haven't even announced yet!

We look forward to the next chapter for Bakugan and we thank all of our loyal brawlers and fans who will continue to Brawl On.

Don't forget to visit Bakugan.com for all the latest official Bakugan news and updates.

Thank you,
The Bakugan Team

There's already been lots of complaints concerning the MS Wave 2 Bakugan with no DNA codes. Now there's this. There has also been lots of speculations, like the theory of a manufacturing and distribution problem concerning the Bakugan with no DNA codes and another theory that there might be another online game to replace Dimensions in the future. There are still no facts and no answers to the questions raised by many of you. But we're hoping that Spinmaster and the Bakugan Team will clear things up by giving us answers and announcements in the very near future.

Updates on Main Site, BD, and Gameplay FAQs

This news is a little late in sharing. I'm sure a lot of you have already come across these changes and updates.

EDITED: The main site of Bakugan, Bakugan.com, has finally been updated back in the beginning of March. The background is that of Zenthon and Dredeon (I thought it was Venexus) facing off each other. We also get to have a good look at the new Mechtanium Surge Bakugan that can be found in the Collection of the site.

Not everything in Bakugan.com has been updated, however. While the background, the Bakugan collection, the Cards, and the Gameplay have been updated with new information and pictures, it seems the Bakugan.com Universe is not. The Gundalians plus Julie, Jake, Ren, and Fabia are still on the Characters database, and Dan, Shun, and Marucho are still sporting their season 3 outfits. With all the secrecy regarding the Mechtanium Surge season, maybe Spinmaster isn't ready yet to give any more spoilers.

Bakugan Dimensions has also been updated, and there's this quick update in case not everyone has read it:

Travel between Earth and Interspace

To travel to Interspace, use the Internet Terminal to "Log in to Interspace." The Internet Terminal is located next to the DNA console in front of the School.

To travel back to Earth, use the Internet Terminal in the Interspace Plaza to "Log out of Interspace." The internet terminal is located near NPC Jason Willis. Please note this will not log you out of Dimensions.

Travel between Earth and Neathia

To travel to Neathia, walk through the starburst Portal located in the Downtown plaza. The portal is located just west of the fountain.

To travel back to Earth, walk through the starburst Portal located in the Neathia plaza, which is the same portal that brought you to Neathia.

Please note the World Map will display only the areas of the world you are in. If you are on Earth then your World Map will show the area maps on Earth. If you are in Interspace, then your World Map will show the Interspace area maps. And if you in Neathia, your World Map will display the Neathia area maps.

There were also updates on the Gameplay FAQ, which are mostly about the use of the Mechtogan, Mechtogan Titans, and BakuNanos in brawling.

In your set up to start brawling, you may have up to two (2) support pieces in any combination. Support pieces include Mechtogan, Mechtogan T.itans, Battle Gear, Mobile Assaults and Traps.

During a battle on a Gate Card you may only play up to one (1) support piece. This has changed from the previous rule of being able to play all your support pieces during battle on a Gate Card.

You may have up to three (3) BakuNano in addition to your support pieces and you may play all 3 BakuNano during battle on a Gate Card.
