Rocket Racing and Call of Duty Warzone Server Shutdowns Are Coming to Xbox in October and November

Two Xbox games are set to lose online access across October and November 2026, with Rocket Racing shutting down completely and Call of Duty: Warzone ending support specifically on Xbox One.

Rocket Racing, which is available inside Fortnite, will go offline on October 1, 2026. Once the servers close, the mode will no longer be playable in any form.

Call of Duty: Warzone is also approaching the end of its Xbox One support. Its servers on Xbox One and PlayStation 4 will shut down when Season 1 of Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 4 begins, which is expected in late October or early November.

Rocket Racing shuts down on October 1

Rocket Racing is the more significant of the two upcoming shutdowns because it affects every Xbox platform where the mode is available.

The game combines elements of Rocket League with traditional racing and operates as a mode inside Fortnite.

Its servers will close on October 1.

According to the supplied information, there will be no offline version or remaining playable mode once the shutdown happens.

That means anyone who wants to play Rocket Racing again will need to do so before the beginning of October.

Warzone support is ending on Xbox One

Call of Duty: Warzone is also being removed from older consoles.

The Xbox One version will stop working when Season 1 of Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 4 begins.

The exact shutdown date has not yet been confirmed, but it is expected to fall in either late October or early November.

PlayStation 4 is also affected by the same change.

The shutdown applies specifically to the older console versions rather than Warzone as a whole.

New Xbox One players already cannot download Warzone

Warzone had already been delisted for new Xbox One players several months earlier.

That means players who had not previously downloaded the game could no longer start playing it on the platform.

The upcoming server closure is the final step for the Xbox One version, as existing players will lose access once the servers are turned off.

September also has two removals

Before the October and November shutdowns begin, two additional Xbox related changes are scheduled for the end of September.

Sociable Soccer 25 is expected to close its servers on September 28.

The Xbox 360 version of Toy Story 3 will then be delisted on September 29 ahead of an upcoming remaster.

These are separate from the Rocket Racing and Warzone shutdowns, but they make the final days of September another period worth watching for players who still use those titles.

The upcoming shutdown list is relatively small

For now, the Xbox server closure calendar for October and November remains limited.

Only Rocket Racing and the Xbox One version of Warzone are currently listed for those two months.

That could change if additional publishers announce closures later.

Server shutdowns are often announced with relatively short notice, especially for older online titles or live service games with shrinking player bases.

As things stand, October 1 is the key date for Rocket Racing, while Xbox One Warzone players should watch for the confirmed launch date of Modern Warfare 4 Season 1.

Anyone interested in revisiting either game should do so before those shutdowns take effect.
