Nintendo brought a Metroid Prime: Blast Ball demo to the 3DS eShop a few months ago. It allowed players to experience a very small slice of single-player, but it primarily was a means to try out the soccer-inspired mode.

Servers for the demo are now confirmed to be discontinued this week. In a notice found on the eShop, it states that they’ll be going offline this weekend.

The full message is as follows:

“Thank you for your continued support. The online multiplayer feature for the Metroid Prime: Federation Force Blast Ball demo will be discontinued at 2016/12/31 23:59 PST. The discontinuation of this demo feature will not impact the online multiplayer feature available in the full version of the game.”

Even after the demo’s servers are removed, you’ll still be able to play Metroid Prime: Blast Ball locally (including Download Play).
