I don't have an Xbox, but on my Switch I can play the game without updating the game. I may not be able to utilize any online features, but if that server is gone I wouldn't be using them anyway.

Nintendo is a major exception to everything. This is about PC, XBOX and Playstation.

There are Playstation games you can play without needing to update the game. Or you can update the game, store the game on an external drive, and restore them when you want to play in the future.
