Electronic Arts has confirmed that *Battlefield Hardline* is nearing the end of its lifecycle on modern consoles, with plans to remove the game from digital stores and shut down its online services in the coming months.

Starting May 22, 2026, the game will be delisted from digital storefronts on [Xbox One](https://www.techloy.com/tag/microsoft-xbox/) and [PlayStation 4](https://www.techloy.com/tag/playstation-4/). After that date, players will no longer be able to purchase the game or its downloadable content.

A month later, on June 22, 2026, EA will shut down all online multiplayer servers for the game on both platforms. This will effectively end all online functionality, including multiplayer matches and connected services.

The publisher confirmed the timeline in a statement, saying, “Online services on these platforms will end on Monday, June 22.”

Despite the shutdown, *Battlefield Hardline* will not disappear entirely for existing players. Those who already own the game will still be able to access the single-player campaign, which remains fully playable offline. However, since multiplayer is a core part of the *Battlefield* experience, the change significantly limits how the game can be played going forward.

This move is part of a broader phase-out. Earlier versions of the game on Xbox 360 and PlayStation 3 had already been removed from stores in previous years.

Notably, the PC version is not affected by this announcement, meaning players on that platform can continue accessing online features for now.

The game also remains available through EA Play—bundled with services like [Xbox Game Pass Ultimate](https://www.techloy.com/tag/xbox-game-pass/) and PC Game Pass—at least until the delisting takes effect.

Originally released in 2015, *Battlefield Hardline* stood out from the franchise’s traditional military setting by focusing on a cops-and-criminals theme. While it received mixed reviews at launch, it developed a dedicated player base over time.

With servers set to go offline and the game being removed from stores, it joins a growing list of older online titles being retired as publishers shift focus to newer releases.
