Next year will be challenging for EA fans, as nine games have already been confirmed to terminate their operations in January 2025.

Here’s the list of the seven EA games that will shutdown next year:

  • Blood & Glory: Immortals – January 29, 2025
  • Contract Killer: Sniper – January 29, 2025
  • Deer Hunter Classic – January 29, 2025

Niccolo De Masi, former CEO of Glu Mobile, recently discussed the reasons behind the failure of some celebrity games, like the shutdown of Kim Kardashian: Hollywood on April 18, 2024, after a successful decade on mobile. Glu Mobile, founded in 2001, was acquired by EA in a deal worth $2.4 billion.

It’s been a tough year for gaming fans as so many old and new games, famous and underrated, are set to discontinue this year and the coming year. We can expect more games to follow suit and face discontinuation this year and the coming year. And it’s not just EA doing this, other gaming studios are also making similar moves.

With this, EA’s track of killing studios and their games has continued. They have been notorious for acquiring studios that have been doing well. Be it Westwood Studios in the past or Visceral Games. Here’s hoping there are no more game shutdowns.
