EA closing servers of two Madden NFL games next year

By Sean Carey,

Not content with just the Medal of Honor server closures, EA has also announced that servers for Madden NFL 18 and Madden NFL 19 will close in March next year.

EA's online services page was recently updated, revealing that servers for all Medal of Honor Xbox games will close next year. Alongside this announcement, EA has also confirmed it will close the servers of Madden NFL 18 and Madden NFL 19 on March 7th, 2023.

Madden NFL 18 and 19 servers closing on March 7th, 2023


Madden NFL 18 and 19 feature four achievements each that will be discontinued once the server closure hits. Luckily, these four online achievements are identical between the two games and have the same requirements, so once you've figured out how to unlock them in 18, it should be straightforward enough to pop them in 19. Estimates suggest it will take between 15 and 20 hours to complete each game.

Both Madden NFL 18 and 19 have been delisted from the Microsoft Store, so if you don't already own them and you want the completions here, you will need to pick up physical copies.

Do you still need to unlock any achievements in either of these games? Let us know!
