Are you talking about digital game downloads or games that require you to always be online?
Because the licenses for digital games almost never get revoked. Usually that only happens when a publisher is forced to recall a game.
If you have a license for a digital game, you can still re-download from the respective online store it even if the game gets delisted and is no longer for sale.
Always online games are worse as it affects both digital and physical copies. Especially for single player games that unnecessarily need an online connection to play. When the publisher shuts down the servers, all versions of the game stop working.
