EA Play to Drop 2 Games in February 2025

Attention all EA Play subscribers! Brace yourselves for some important updates regarding the service in February 2025. EA Play, EA's premier subscription service, offers a vast array of benefits including free game trials, full game access, and more. It's available both as a standalone subscription and bundled with Xbox Game Pass Ultimate. However, February 2025 marks the departure of two beloved titles from the EA Play library.

Firstly, Madden NFL 23 will be leaving EA Play on February 15, followed by F1 22 on February 28. It's crucial to understand that while these games are being removed from the EA Play lineup, their online multiplayer features won't be shut down immediately. Nonetheless, their eventual online shutdown is on the horizon. Therefore, EA Play subscribers should make the most of these games while they're still available.

Here's a quick rundown of the games departing from EA Play:

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

In addition to these removals, there's more news that might dampen the spirits of EA fans. UFC 3 will see its online services shut down on February 17. While it's uncertain whether UFC 3 will remain accessible through EA Play post-shutdown, the loss of its online features is a significant blow. Subscribers might want to prioritize playing UFC 3 before this date.

Despite these setbacks, there's a silver lining for EA Play members. The service will continue to offer newer iterations of these franchises. After February 2025, you'll still have access to Madden NFL 24, F1 23, and UFC 4. Moreover, UFC 5 is set to join the EA Play lineup on January 14, providing a fresh and exciting addition to the service. While it's always disappointing to see games leave subscription services, the availability of newer versions can help ease the transition.
