To the surprise of absolutely no one, EA Games is planning to kill off another of its mainline games, this time targeting the 2013 Need for Speed: Rivals. The game is shutting down on Oct. 7, while the move itself shows EA's seeming disregard for the Stop Killing Games initiative.
Without so much as a proper article on its site, EA Games has placed Need for Speed: Rivals, a mainline entry in the series, on its "Online Services Shutdown" list. The title's online servers will be "sunsetted," as the term goes, on Oct. 7, with the game seemingly being rendered unplayable as of that date.
