November brings another round of Xbox server closures for players to tackle, and to help you get an idea of what games to jump into before their online services are shut down for good, we've rounded up all of the confirmed server closures for next month.

Xbox server closures planned for November 2024

FIFA 22 is November's first Xbox server closure causality. Both the Xbox Series X|S and Xbox One versions of FIFA 22 will lose online support on November 4. Once the server closure strikes, 21 achievements will be discontinued in the Series X|S version, whereas 18 will be discontinued in the Xbox One version. Both stacks already feature online achievements that can't be unlocked, so unless you have those, the completion will be out of reach. FIFA 22 has also been delisted from the Xbox store.

On November 7, servers for the Xbox 360 versions of Battlefield 3, Battlefield 4, and Battlefield Hardline will go dark. For Battlefield 3, 43 achievements will be discontinued — the majority of these online achievements are in DLC packs that have already been delisted. Battlefield 3 is backwards compatible and currently included with EA Play and Xbox Game Pass Ultimate.

Battlefield 4 and Battlefield Hardline are not backwards compatible, so if you want to complete them, you will need an Xbox 360. Once again, most online achievements in these games are found in their delisted DLC packs, but overall, Battlefield 4 will see 30 achievements discontinued, and Battlefield Hardline will lose 25 online achievements. It should be noted that one achievement in Hardline is partially discontinued/unobtainable.

Finally, NBA Live 18 will also lose online services on November 7. The basketball game has four online-only achievements, which you won't be able to unlock after the server closure. NBA Live 18 already has two discontinued achievements on its list, and it has been delisted from the Xbox store.

In other server closure news, WWE 2K23 was granted a rare reprieve. The wrestling game's servers were due to close at the end of September, but 2K Games has pushed the closure back to 2025.
