Electronic Arts, the publisher of Command and Conquer Generals, Command and Conquer Generals Zero Hour, Tiberium Wars, Kane's Wrath and Red Alert 3 have announced that, despite the announcement by GameSpy last month that it would cease to provide hosting services for all hosted games on 31 May, the online service for those games and many other of their titles currently hosted by GameSpy will continue until 30 June 2014.
Update on EA Titles Hosted on GameSpy
GameSpy
announced earlier this month that they would be ending all hosted services for games, which impacts the online capabilities of a number of older titles, including some from EA.
Since GameSpy's announcement, our teams have been working to evaluate options to keep services up and running. Unfortunately, due to technical challenges and concerns about the player experience, we do not have a solution at this time. Online services for EA games on the GameSpy platform will be closed down at the end of June.
We know some of these games are still fan favorites, including Battlefield 2, Battlefield 1942, Medal of Honor: Allied Assault and Command & Conquer games. We are still investigating community-supported options to preserve online functionality for these titles, such as multiplayer. Significant technical hurdles remain, and at this time we don't have anything to announce.
