Ubisoft is cutting off online gameplay for 15 games, players will no longer have access to purchased DLC
Ubisoft has stated that the online services for 15 games will be decommissioned on September 1. Users will no longer be able to play the multiplayer and co-op modes in these games, linking accounts and online features will no longer work, and, worst of all, users will lose access to DLC they purchased.
These games' online components will cease to function on PC, PlayStation 3, Wii U, and Xbox 360. The remastered editions of Assassin's Creed 3 and Far Cry 3 will continue to function normally, but you will need to purchase them if you only own the original versions. While the most of these games are over a decade old, Space Junkies is a remarkable exception, having only been released three years ago. It's a multiplayer-only VR game that Ubisoft is still selling (for as much as $20) despite the fact that it will become entirely unplayable in two months.
- Anno 2070
- Assassin's Creed 2
- Assassin's Creed 3
- Assassin's Creed Brotherhood

- Driver San Francisco
- Far Cry 3
- Ghost Recon Future Soldier
- Prince of Persia: The Forgotten Sands
- Rayman Legends

The concept aside, I don't play any of the 15 games mentioned nor do I believe I'd have any interest in the online mode of any of them.
Does anyone actually play these games today? Space Junkies is the most recent one if I understand right, and I never heard of it.

losing access to the online companety i can understand but losing access to DLC you bought?
Imagine what would happen if Steam or ANY online store account says they shutting down? image worlds rage over lose of the actual game people bought, Less the day that happen we all have access to too 10gbit connections and and 500-1000TB storage at realistic prices are thing then i see mass riots happen.
There is reason why i get console games on disc still they still make them on disc so i get them that way, sadly DLC dont tend to be on disc less it was GOTY edition with everything included and i dont remeber last time PC games actual had physical discs
I remeber no such time, then again I dont think ubisoft every really made game i cared about
