8 Games to Exit Xbox Game Pass in May 2025

Microsoft has revealed the lineup of games that will be exiting its Xbox Game Pass subscription service on May 15, 2025. A total of eight games are scheduled to depart, including notable titles such as Brothers: A Tale of Two Sons, Jurassic World Evolution 2, and Little Kitty, Big City.

Xbox Game Pass is a dynamic online gaming service available for Xbox and PC platforms. Subscribers can enjoy streaming games directly on various smart devices and consoles, access new releases on their first day of launch depending on their subscription tier, and dive into a vast catalog of high-quality games with friends across console, PC, or cloud. The following eight games will soon be removed from this extensive library:

Microsoft is poised to unveil Wave 2 of the May 2025 Game Pass lineup shortly after these games leave the service, promising fresh titles to fill the void.

Earlier this month, Xbox Game Pass Ultimate members received an exciting new perk: the ability to stream certain games directly to their consoles without the need for downloads. This feature was detailed in an Xbox Wire post, which highlighted that Ultimate members can now stream games from the Game Pass catalog, as well as "select games they own," on their Xbox Series X, Xbox Series S, and Xbox One consoles via cloud streaming. Previously, this functionality was available on smart TVs, PCs, smartphones, and Meta Quest headsets, marking a significant expansion to include console streaming for the first time.

In other gaming news, the announcement that Grand Theft Auto 6 has been delayed to May 2026 might have fans eager to revisit GTA 5. Fortunately, GTA 5 Enhanced is now accessible on Xbox Game Pass and Game Pass for PC, with the PC version marking its debut on the service, offering an enhanced gaming experience to subscribers.
