Will RWS' MT "Starter yearly" subscription (providing "cloud-based resources" as an MT translation memory) still work with Trados Studio 2021 after 31 December?

I have received an e-mail stating that “Access to Trados Studio’s cloud capabilities will end (on 31 December 2024) if not upgraded to Studio 2024.

RWS language weaver’s MT is the only “cloud capability” that I use within Trados Studio. I always work offline otherwise. It is a "Starter yearly" plan for which I pay EUR 99 per year. The plan enables me to select a machine translation memory from "Cloud-based resources" in the translation memory list in Project settings, in the same way that I select my own offline translation memories (as in the screenshot).

The plan is up for renewal on 22 December.

If I renew the plan in December, will it still work after 31 December with Trados Studio 2021? I.e. will “Cloud based resources” still be selectable in the translation memory list, as in the screenshot below? Or will it not work?

Thanks.
