When is Battlefield Hardline Shutting Down?

Monday, June 22 Battlefield Hardline, the 2015 Battlefield spin-off developed by Visceral Games, will be shutting down on PS4 and Xbox One on Monday, June 22. Battlefield Hardline switched the focus from military battles to police conflicts, offering a significantly different vibe than most games in the series. It earned mixed reviews but still had its fans, and when the PS4 and Xbox One versions shut down on June 22, it will no longer be possible to play the game online on consoles. Battlefield Hardline's PS3 and Xbox 360 versions were shut down a couple of years ago, and so after June 22, th

EA Game is Permanently Shutting Down This Month

While taking a glass half empty approach makes sense given just how rough 2026 has been for the shooter genre, there are a few reasons to be optimistic. For starters, perhaps Marathon’s excellent night map and free week could bring it enough players to thrive long-term, which could eventually lead to Destiny 3’s release. Additionally, Battlefield 6’s post-launch content seems to be moving in the right direction, while Black Ops 7’s Totenreich Zombies map is phenomenal, inspiring hope that the next few maps will be as well. A lot will be riding on the upcoming Modern Warfare 4, as though the re
