Summary
- Two games are scheduled to leave EA Play in February 2025.
- Madden NFL 23 will depart on February 15, while F1 22 will exit on February 28.
- Additionally, the online services for UFC 3 will cease on February 17.
EA Play subscribers should take note that two games will be leaving the service in February 2025. EA Play, EA's subscription service, offers its members access to free game trials, full game libraries, and a range of other benefits. This service can be subscribed to independently or comes as part of the Xbox Game Pass Ultimate bundle.
One of the key advantages of an EA Play subscription is the extensive selection of games from EA's catalog, which includes both classic titles and recent releases. However, like many subscription services, EA Play periodically removes games from its lineup. In February 2025, two such games will be removed.
EA has confirmed that Madden NFL 23 will be removed from EA Play on February 15, and F1 22 will follow on February 28. It's important to clarify that these games are not shutting down their online multiplayer features immediately; they are simply being removed from the EA Play service. However, their online services will eventually be discontinued at a later date. Therefore, EA Play subscribers should make the most of their time with Madden NFL 23 and F1 22 while they're still available.
List of Games Leaving EA Play Soon
- Madden NFL 23 - February 15
- F1 22 - February 28
In addition to the removal of Madden NFL 23 and F1 22 from EA Play, February 2025 will also see the end of online services for UFC 3 on February 17. It remains unclear whether UFC 3 will continue to be available through EA Play, but the loss of its online features will significantly impact the gameplay experience. Consequently, EA Play subscribers might want to prioritize playing UFC 3 before this date.
While the departure of these EA games from the EA Play lineup and the shutdown of UFC 3's online services may be disappointing, there is some consolation. EA Play will continue to offer newer versions of these games, including Madden NFL 24, F1 23, and UFC 4. Moreover, UFC 5 is set to join the EA Play lineup on January 14. Thus, while it's always sad to see games leave subscription services, the availability of newer titles can help mitigate the impact.
