EA Shutting Down Servers for 4 More Games
On October 20, EA will be shutting down the online services for Army of Two: The 40th Day and Army of Two: The Devil's Cartel. Then on November 9, online services for Command & Conquer: Red Alert 3, Command & Conquer 3: Tiberium Wars, and Command & Conquer 3: Kane's Wrath, and Mercenaries 2: World in Flames are all being shut down. The end of November will see Onrush servers shut down, with the game's online capabilities ending November 30.
After these shutdowns take place, the next date that fans should mark down is January 19, 2023. On that day, four more EA games will lose their online services: Gatling Gears, the original Mirror's Edge, NBA Jam: On Fire Edition, and Shank 2. According to TrueAchievements, two NBA Jam achievements will become impossible to earn after this point, so achievement hunters may want to move it to the top of their list while they still can.
It's unlikely that the server shutdowns for these games are going to cause major issues for players, but it's still a disappointing development. It should be pointed out as well that not all of these games have online multiplayer functionality, but rather other kinds of online services. For example, in the case of the 2008 Mirror's Edge game, fans won't be losing access to any online multiplayer modes, but they will be losing access to the online leaderboards.
It's unknown at this point if any of these server shutdowns will coincide with the game's being delisted or not. EA has delisted many of its games in the past, though that's usually due to expiring licenses in sports and racing games. It's unlikely that will be a factor for these particular games, so fans shouldn't necessarily have to worry about them being delisted, but it's still something to keep an eye on for anyone that is interested in playing these games but has yet to get around to it.
Online service shutdowns for older PlayStation 3 and Xbox 360-era games will likely continue in the months ahead as the vast majority of players have moved on to modern platforms. For now, fans of EA's games can keep the aforementioned removal dates on their minds and plan their gaming sessions accordingly.

Will certainly miss playing Army of Two: The 40th Day and Army of Two: The Devil's Cartel online on the PS3,
but good things always have to come to an end at some point. It was great while they lasted
