Xbox players face a shrinking catalog of online multiplayer titles as Microsoft and developers prepare server shutdowns for Rocket Racing and Call of Duty: Warzone through late 2026. Fraser, News Editor at Pure Xbox, reported that Rocket Racing will officially go offline for all Xbox consoles on October 1, 2026, while the Xbox One version of Call of Duty: Warzone is slated to shut down when Season 1 begins for Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 4 in late October or early November 2026.
Rocket Racing Server Shutdown and Fortnite Integration End
Rocket Racing, developed as a hybrid of traditional racing and Rocket League mechanics playable inside Fortnite, will be completely unavailable once its servers close on October 1, 2026.
Call of Duty: Warzone Retiring on Xbox One Consoles
Call of Duty: Warzone is winding down its support specifically for older hardware, with servers closing for Xbox One and PlayStation 4 players. According to Pure Xbox, the shutdown coincides with the launch of Season 1 for Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 4, scheduled for either late October or early November 2026. The move cuts off access for players still using Xbox One systems, a group that has already faced barriers since the game was delisted for new players months prior.
Additional September Closures and Upcoming Changes
The autumn shutdown schedule also includes previously announced housekeeping items across the platform. Pure Xbox noted that servers for Sociable Soccer 25 are scheduled to close on September 28, 2026, while the Xbox 360 version of Toy Story 3 is set for delisting on September 29, 2026, ahead of an upcoming remaster.
