EA Play to Drop 2 Games in Feb 2025

Summary

  • Two games are leaving EA Play in February 2025.
  • Madden NFL 23 is leaving on February 15 while F1 22 is leaving on February 28.
  • Meanwhile, UFC 3's online will shut down on February 17.

EA Play subscribers, take note: two popular titles are set to leave the service in February 2025. EA Play, EA's premier subscription service, offers a variety of benefits including free game trials, full game access, and more. Available both as a standalone subscription and bundled with Xbox Game Pass Ultimate, EA Play is a treasure trove for gamers looking to dive into a diverse library of titles.

One of the key advantages of an EA Play subscription is the extensive range of games from the publisher, spanning from timeless classics to the latest releases. However, as with most subscription services, the lineup is subject to change, and February 2025 marks the departure of two significant titles.

EA has announced that Madden NFL 23 will exit the EA Play lineup on February 15, followed by F1 22 on February 28. It's important to clarify that while these games are being removed from EA Play, their online multiplayer features are not immediately shutting down. Nevertheless, these features will cease at some point in the future. Therefore, subscribers should make the most of these games while they're still accessible through EA Play.

List of Games Leaving EA Play Soon

  • Madden NFL 23 - February 15
  • F1 22 - February 28

The news doesn't stop there for EA fans in February 2025. UFC 3's online services are scheduled to shut down on February 17. While it remains uncertain whether UFC 3 will continue to be available on EA Play after this date, the loss of its online features will significantly impact the gaming experience. EA Play subscribers might want to prioritize playing UFC 3 before its online shutdown.

While the removal of these EA-published titles from the EA Play lineup is undoubtedly disappointing, there's a silver lining. Newer iterations of these games will still be accessible on the service. After February, subscribers can enjoy Madden NFL 24, F1 23, and UFC 4. Moreover, UFC 5 will join the EA Play lineup on January 14, providing a fresh and exciting alternative. Though it's always tough to see favorite games leave subscription services, the availability of updated versions can help ease the transition.
