Closing of Zula Latin America edit
The closure of Zula Latin America was announced on April 8, 2021, on the official Facebook page[8]. It was confirmed that the service would cease on April 14 by Axeso5, stating that it wasn't their intention and they couldn't unilaterally renew the distribution license. Up to that point, Madbyte Games had set up a migration system for Axeso accounts on Zula to transition to Madbyte Games' new, fully updated Zula service. Unfortunately, this migration lasted only a month.
