Ubisoft has an extensive catalog of games players can play online with friends. Among those games, there are some online servers that have been active for over a decade. With the catalog introducing games every year, it can get difficult for the studio to keep older online projects running.

While games like Assassin’s Creed Mirage and Avatar: Frontiers Of Pandora will be a part of the catalog by the end of the year, other games will be making an exit. Ubisoft has recently put out an article on the help section of their website stating the games that will be decommissioned by January 2024.
