Summary
Two EA Play games are departing in February 2025: Madden NFL 23 on February 15th and F1 22 on February 28th. Additionally, UFC 3's online services will end February 17th.
EA Play subscribers should take note of these February 2025 removals. EA Play, EA's subscription service, offers game trials, full games, and other benefits, available standalone or bundled with Xbox Game Pass Ultimate. A key benefit is access to a diverse game library, spanning both older and newer titles. However, like other subscription services, games are periodically removed.
EA confirms the February 2025 removal of Madden NFL 23 (February 15th) and F1 22 (February 28th). Importantly, this removal doesn't immediately shut down online multiplayer; however, online shutdowns will eventually follow. EA Play subscribers should enjoy these titles while they remain available.
List of Games Leaving EA Play Soon
- Madden NFL 23 - February 15th
- F1 22 - February 28th
Beyond the EA Play removals, UFC 3's online functionality ends February 17th. Its continued availability on EA Play is unclear, but its core features will be significantly impacted. Subscribers may wish to prioritize playing UFC 3 before this date.
While the removal of these EA games and online shutdowns are disappointing, newer entries in their respective franchises remain on EA Play. Madden NFL 24, F1 23, and UFC 4 will remain accessible after February, with UFC 5 joining the lineup January 14th. Although game removals are common for subscription services, the availability of newer titles helps mitigate the impact.
