Ubisoft has announced that it shut down online multiplayer and services for a number of its games.
Most of the games are legacy titles. Some of them – like the original Ghost Recon for PC – are over twenty years old now. They are also ending online support for games like Assassin’s Creed 2, Far Cry, Rainbow Six Vegas 2, and a host of old Just Dance games.
In-game news and player statistics are also disabled. They are also disabling unlockable content for things such as maps and skins. Even if it was previously redeemed, the content is no longer available on PC. For console players, the ULC is still available unless you reset your save files. However, offline features remain available.
“For games that used Ubisoft Connect services, Units and Challenges will be disabled, meaning you will no longer be able to earn Units by completing Challenges for the game,” Ubisoft says. “Rewards can still be unlocked. However, you will not be able to receive them in-game.”
What games lost online multiplayer and services support?
Ubisoft announced that the following games are affected across platforms ranging from PC, PS3, PS4, Wii, Wii U, Xbox 360, and Xbox One. There is even a game for GameCube, PS2, and the original Xbox that is losing online support (Rainbow Six Lockdown).
