by Eleanor May 22,2025

Microsoft has announced that several games will be departing from its Xbox Game Pass subscription service on May 15, 2025. A total of eight titles are set to leave, including notable games such as Brothers: A Tale of Two Sons, Jurassic World Evolution 2, and Little Kitty, Big City.

Xbox Game Pass is a comprehensive gaming subscription service available for Xbox and PC platforms. Subscribers can enjoy streaming games directly on various smart devices and consoles, access new releases on day one based on their subscription level, and explore a vast library of premium games, which can be played with friends across console, PC, or in the cloud. The following eight games are scheduled to be removed from this extensive catalog.

  • Chants of Sennaar
  • Dune: Spice Wars
  • Hauntii
  • Jurassic World Evolution 2
  • Little Kitty, Big City
  • Planet of Lana
  • The Big Con

Microsoft is set to unveil the second wave of the May 2025 Game Pass lineup following the departure of these titles.

Earlier this month, Xbox Game Pass Ultimate subscribers received a new benefit: the ability to stream select games directly to their consoles without the need for downloads. This update was shared in an Xbox Wire post, detailing that Xbox Game Pass Ultimate members can now stream games from the Game Pass library, as well as certain games they own, directly on their Xbox Series X, Series S, and Xbox One consoles via cloud streaming. Previously, this feature was available on smart TVs, PCs, smartphones, and Meta Quest headsets, marking its first introduction to console users.

In other 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, making it an exciting addition, especially for PC users experiencing it on Game Pass for the first time.
