Initially developed by Crytek and later joining the MY.GAMES portfolio, the free-to-play MMOFPS Warface: Clutch is permanently shutting down its servers. Since its initial launch in 2013, Warface has been a highly popular title, particularly in Russia and Eastern Europe.
Shutdown Dates
MY.GAMES will carry out the shutdown process in two phases:
| Platform | Shutdown Date |
|---|---|
| PC (Steam, Epic Games Store) | May 27, 2025 |
| Consoles (PlayStation, Xbox, Nintendo Switch) | August 25, 2025 |
As of February 26, all in-game purchases and payments have been disabled. However, players can continue to use previously acquired content until the servers officially close.
Why is it Closing?
In a statement released by MY.GAMES, the decision was made following extensive internal evaluations. The company intends to reallocate its resources toward new projects and initiatives. The announcement also emphasized deep respect for the community and the game’s long-standing history.

A Brief History
Warface was first released in 2013 by Crytek, developed on the CryEngine. Over the years, it was serviced under various publishers in different regions. It was eventually rebranded as Warface: Clutch and continued its journey under MY.GAMES. The game reached a vast audience through its wide variety of PvP and PvE modes.
The closure of Warface: Clutch adds another name to the growing list of live service game shutdowns in recent times. Players are encouraged to contact platform support teams for refunds and personal data deletion requests.
