In the wake of recent news regarding Ubisoft and the possibility that this game publishment/development studio may be next in line for acquisition, it has recently been reported that online services for that have been around for several years, It has been stated that at least online services for at least 90 different Ubisoft titles across multiple platforms.
In a news report from Gamespot.com, included within those 90 titles were America's Army, Far Cry Blood Dragon, Tom Clancy's Rainbox Six Vegas, Rayman Legends, a ton of Just Dance titles, and many more. Also to note: While some of these games are having their online services shut down outright, other services will only be shutting down partially, and will operate with limited functionality. Some games will also be shutting down online functionally on specific platforms only.
Many are speculating that Ubisoft has been shutting down its older services due to the current state of the company, as it has recently been reported that Ubisoft's stock prices have been tanking as of late, and many internal and external struggles could end up causing the company to place itself up for sale in order to stay in business.

The biggest concern that many players have with the recent shutdowns is that unlockable content such as new skins and maps may now be completely inaccessible for certain titles. PC users will be affected by this the most, as some content will be now permanently unavailable, even if the content was previously unlocked, while console players will still have access to the unlocked content, as long as their save file remains intact.
Ubisoft has not yet provided a reason for the shuttering of the online services for the affected games.
