Attention all EA Play subscribers: brace yourselves for some changes coming to the service in February 2025. EA Play, EA's premier subscription service, offers a treasure trove of benefits including free game trials, full game access, and more. Whether you're subscribed to EA Play standalone or through Xbox Game Pass Ultimate, you'll want to take note of the upcoming shifts in the game lineup.
EA Play boasts an extensive library, featuring a mix of classic hits and the latest releases, ensuring there's something for every gamer. However, as with all subscription services, the lineup is subject to change, and February 2025 will see the departure of two beloved titles. Madden NFL 23 will be removed from the service on February 15, followed by F1 22 on February 28. While these games won't immediately lose their online multiplayer capabilities, their removal from EA Play means subscribers should make the most of them while they can.
List of Games Leaving EA Play Soon
- Madden NFL 23 - February 15
- F1 22 - February 28
But that's not all the news for February 2025. UFC 3's online services are set to shut down on February 17, which could impact its availability and playability on EA Play. Given this, subscribers might want to prioritize their time with UFC 3 before this date.
While it's always disappointing to see games leave a subscription service, there's a silver lining for EA Play members. The newer iterations of these franchises, such as Madden NFL 24, F1 23, and UFC 4, will remain accessible post-February. Moreover, fans of the UFC series can look forward to UFC 5 joining the EA Play lineup on January 14. So, while saying goodbye to these games is never easy, the availability of their successors should help ease the transition.
