Grid Legends and TopSpin 2K25 are both losing online servers

EA and 2K have both posted server shutdown notices for two of their games. Grid Legends loses online on PlayStation and Xbox on September 11 this year, while TopSpin 2K25's servers go dark on December 31, 2027.

Grid Legends players on Steam and Switch 2 are safe for now — the shutdown only hits console versions. TopSpin 2K25 actually got a reprieve: 2K had previously set the end of 2026 as the cutoff, so players are getting a full extra year. 2K's notice says supporting older titles alongside newer ones eventually becomes "commercially unfeasible," and EA echoed the same reasoning, saying falling player populations make it impossible to justify the ongoing backend work.

The TopSpin 2K25 shutdown stings a bit more than usual — it's the newest entry in the series, not some aging title from a decade ago. Anyone still playing either game competitively online now has a hard deadline on the calendar.
