The announcement was made on the official Battlefield Discord, where EA also linked the publisher’s sunsetting process.
While the console version of Battlefield Hardline will be pulled in May, with its servers shutting down in June, the PC version will remain unaffected. At the very least, the game will still be playable on one platform.
Released in 2015, Battlefield Hardline was the first spin-off of the franchise that featured cops and robbers instead of the standard large-scale warfare the franchise is known for.

If you’re a fan of the game or want to experience it before it gets pulled, you have a month and a half to buy it, and about three months left to enjoy it.
