EA will be shutting down online services for Crysis 3, Dante’s Inferno, and Dead Space 2 later this year, rendering any online parts of the games unplayable.
In March, EA announced that Battlefield 1943, Battlefield: Bad Company, and Battlefield: Bad Company 2 were all set to be delisted in April ahead of the “retirement of the online services for these titles”, which is currently scheduled for 8th December.
EA has not made an official announcement regarding Crysis 3, Dante’s Inferno, and Dead Space 2, which will all have their servers closed come 2024.
Spotted by Pure Xbox, a lengthy history of when EA shut down online services for its products can be found on its website (though annoyingly in alphabetical rather than chronological order).
The first to be shut down will be Crysis 3 on 7th September. Crysis 3 Remastered doesn’t include any of the multiplayer modes, so all of its content will remain intact. However, multiplayer in the original game on PS3, Xbox 360, Xbox One (through backwards compatibility), Steam, and EA’s launcher will be unplayable.
