Ubisoft shutting down online services for 10 older games, including 4 Assassin’s Creed entries
31.10.2023 - 20:31 / destructoid.com / Ubisoft
Ubisoft is shutting down online services for 10 of their older games early next year. This includes a few older Assassin’s Creed games on platforms like PC and Xbox 360, as well as Trials Evolution‘s PC servers.
This isn’t the first time Ubisoft has elected to end online services for some of their older games. Although some may be displeased by it, eventually shutting down online services for older entries is common in the gaming industry.
The services are set to shut down early next year, on January 25, 2024 to be exact. Many noticed the abundance of big name franchises such as Assassin’s Creed. Here are the 10 games players will no longer have online access to from Ubisoft.
During the prime of older Assassin’s Creed entries, online multiplayer was a huge staple in the franchise. Some of the beloved modes that fans of the franchise used to enjoy included PvP modes that allowed players to hash it out in intense stealth battles. There were even a number of different scenarios that could accompany these modes.
But, in newer entries, it is evident that the multiplayer aspect has become much less prominent. Some games, such as Assassin’s Creed Valhalla and Assassin’s Creed Mirage, have completely discarded the multiplayer component that older entries once leaned on.
Although these games will no longer be available for online services, players will still have great memories of them.

Apple to shut down iTunes Movie Store on iPhones; iOS 17.2 beta 2 takes the first steps
The iOS 17.2 public beta 2 was rolled out yesterday, November 10, and we saw the Spatial video recording feature arrive with the update, while it is already known that it will also add the highly anticipated Journal app to the iPhones. However, one less-talked-about change with this feature is that Apple has started taking the first steps towards phasing out the dedicated iTunes Movie Store that users have become accustomed to. It is expected to be merged with the TV app soon, and eventually removing it from iPhones.
