After shutting down The Crew's servers at the end of March, Ubisoft has reportedly started removing the open-world racer from owners' libraries and revoking their user license.
Ubisoft delisted The Crew - which would otherwise be celebrating its tenth birthday later this year - from digital storefronts last December, with the publisherit would be permanently shutting the game's servers down on 31st March 2024. And that didn't just mean The Crew's multiplayer elements would no longer be accessible; due to the game's always-online nature, all single-player content would cease to be available too.
Even so, The Crew fans - some of whom had hoped the game might live on through private servers - were shocked to discover that Ubisoft had seemingly started revoking owners' licenses earlier this week too, making the game impossible to download and install.) The Crew had been moved out of their Ubisoft Connect libraries and put in a new"inactive games" section, along with the message,"You no longer have access to this game.
As for Ubisoft, when approached by Eurogamer for comment on its decision to begin revoking The Crew licenses, it merely referred back to its initial announcement."We announced on December 14, 2023 that after almost a decade of support, we would be decommissioning The Crew 1 on March 31, 2024," it wrote."While we understand this may be disappointing for players, it was necessary due to server infrastructure and licensing constraints.
