With all of these games, players will no longer be able to use multiplayer modes, link Ubisoft accounts in-game, or use any other online features. In addition to this, any Ubisoft Connect rewards will be made unavailable.

So Singleplayer will continue to work?

Yes

In theory, yes. However last time I tried Assassin's Creed 1 (I think about 3 years ago now), it crashed at startup trying to reach a service that no longer existed. I had to disconnect the network, start the game, then reconnect. After this it worked fine.
