The Elder Scrolls: Blades ends its mobile run this June as Bethesda shuts down servers

Bethesda will permanently shut down The Elder Scrolls: Blades’ servers on June 30, 2026. The game has been delisted from the App Store, Google Play, and Nintendo Store. In the lead‑up to shutdown, players will get a last hurrah: a free Gems and Sigils bundle and all in‑game items will cost just one Gem or Sigil. Blades launched in 2020 for Android, iOS, and Nintendo Switch and never matched the success of Bethesda’s main titles; its Legends spinoff was shut down in 2019, leaving Castles as the remaining mobile Elder Scrolls option.

EA to Shut Down Anthem Servers in January 2026

EA announced that the online game Anthem will have its servers shut down on January 12, 2026, making it unplayable after that date, with the game being removed from EA Play in August 2025. Despite initial plans to overhaul the game, BioWare decided against it, and the game's discontinuation follows its poor reception and the broader movement against game server shutdowns. The game, released in 2019 for PS4, was a commercial and critical failure, and its servers' closure marks the end of its online existence.

Ubisoft Faces Lawsuit Over The Crew's Server Shutdown

Ubisoft is facing a potential class action lawsuit from two Californian players over the shutdown of servers for the online-only racing game, The Crew, which has rendered the game unplayable. The lawsuit, filed under California's new digital ownership law, claims Ubisoft misled consumers into believing they were purchasing the game rather than merely licensing it. The plaintiffs argue that they would not have bought the game had they known the servers would be shut down, and they seek to have the lawsuit approved as a class action to allow other affected players to join.
