Nintendo has announced that the Pokémon Global Link for Pokémon Black and White and their sequels will be closed completely by January 2014.

The closure will begin in October, alongside the launch of Pokémon X and Y, with certain functions being shut off ahead of a full closure in January. Once the service is closed ”all connection functionality with these video games will become unavailable.”

A new Global Link will open for Pokémon X and Y in October, according to Nintendo.

Matthew Bennett finally got his big break with EGM three years ago, following years of volunteer work for various sites. An ability to go many hours without sleep and a quick wit make him ideal for his role as associate editor at EGMNOW.com. He often thinks back to the days when the very idea of this career seemed like nothing but an impossible dream. Follow him on Twitter @mattyjb89. Meet the rest of the crew.
