Looks like it’s time once again to retire some servers. Ubisoft has made its list and I hope they are checking it multiple times. Wouldn’t want an unplanned outage on our hands, would we?
The French company has made a list of 10 games that they will be turning online services off. Of course, this means that the games will not have any multiplayer functions, you won’t be able to link a Ubisoft account, or collect rewards. So, if that’s something you need to do on these old games, you might wanna move.
The games affected are:
- Assassin’s Creed II – Xbox 360
- Assassin’s Creed Brotherhood – MAC
- Assassin’s Creed Liberation HD – PlayStation 3, Xbox 360
- Assassin’s Creed Revelations – PC
- Ghost Recon Future Soldier – PC
- Heroes of Might and Magic VI – PC
- NCSI – PC
- Splinter Cell: Conviction – Xbox 360
- R.U.S.E. – PC
- Trials Evolution – PC
Decommissioning the online services for older games is something we do not take lightly, however, it is also a necessity as the technology behind these services becomes outdated.”

The last time Ubisoft turned off servers was back in October of 2022 where 15 games were on the chopping block. But again, I stress that they check the list again and again. You see, earlier in 2022, some games were taken offline that shouldn’t have, so Ubisoft has a track record of getting things wrong.
