Ubisoft is delisting The Crew 1 after nearly a decade, but even worse, existing owners will no longer be able to play as of March 2024.

Yes. The game requires you to be online at all times even though it's mostly a single player game.

We need laws requiring companies to patch the game to be playable offline when they inevitably shut the servers down. This is unacceptable.

That wouldn't hurt, though the current ToS of all platforms like Ubisoft's or Steam do say that you only buy a subscription/license when you make a purchase. It's something I bring up when people refuse to pay for Game Pass and think it's any different.

It always been like that, even with physical games
