The calendar of server shutdowns keeps moving forward and August 2026 will bring a new batch of games that will lose their online features. Although some titles will still be playable in their single-player modes, multiplayer and all internet-connected services will cease to be available once the scheduled dates arrive.

If you still play any of these games with friends or have pending online matches, it’s a good idea to take note. The companies have already set the calendar, and barring any last-minute changes, these services will stop working in the coming weeks.

Xbox Games That Will Lose Their Servers in August

These are the confirmed titles so far:

• NBA 2K Playgrounds 2 — August 20, 2026
• WWE 2K Battlegrounds — August 20, 2026
• Warface: Clutch — August 25, 2026
• NHL 22 — August 31, 2026
• NHL 22 (Xbox One) — August 31, 2026
• NHL 23 — August 31, 2026
• NHL 23 (Xbox One) — August 31, 2026

The shutdowns will mainly affect multiplayer modes and all features that rely on the official game servers. In some cases, it will still be possible to enjoy single-player content, while others will lose a significant part of their experience when online support disappears.

As usual, this list may be expanded if other companies announce new shutdowns in the coming weeks. If any of these games are part of your library and you still use them to play online, this is a good time to take advantage of their servers before they become permanently unavailable.
