Crysis 2

Online servers

The game's online servers for the Windows version (which were hosted on GameSpy) were scheduled to shut down on 30 June 2014, like for other Electronic Arts titles in the wake of GameSpy's total closure.

Other platforms' servers were shut down on 11 October 2018.

Steam release

This game was Electronic Arts' final game to be released on the Steam digital distribution platform before 2019's Star Wars: Jedi - Fallen Order. Only expansions and updates for EA games already available on Steam were published in the meanwhile. The reasoning was EA's focus on their own distribution platform, Origin, and Valve's "set of business terms" was blamed for the move.
