This season was the last for four teams in the USL, with all changing leagues for 2019 and beyond. FC Cincinnati will join Major League Soccer.[2] MLS side Toronto FC announced that its reserve side, Toronto FC II, would drop to USL League One, a third-level league slated to launch in 2019,[3] and the Richmond Kickers also chose to drop to League One for 2019 and beyond.[4] Near the end of the season, Penn FC announced that it would suspend professional operations for 2019 and resume play in League One in 2020.[5]

It was also the final season for the league under the "United Soccer League" name. Effective with the 2019 season, the league has been rebranded as the USL Championship.[6]
