Microsoft has announced that eight games will be departing from its Xbox Game Pass subscription service on May 15, 2025. Among those leaving are Brothers: A Tale of Two Sons, Jurassic World Evolution 2, and Little Kitty, Big City.
Xbox Game Pass is a dynamic gaming subscription service available for Xbox and PC, offering a vast library of high-quality games. Subscribers can enjoy new releases on launch day, depending on their subscription level, and play games with friends across console, PC, or cloud platforms. The following eight titles are set to be removed from the service:
- Brothers: A Tale of Two Sons
- Chants of Sennaar
- Dune: Spice Wars
- Hauntii
- Jurassic World Evolution 2
- Little Kitty, Big City
- Planet of Lana
- The Big Con
Microsoft is anticipated to reveal the second wave of the May 2025 Game Pass lineup shortly after these games are removed.
In other news, Xbox Game Pass Ultimate members have recently gained a new feature: the ability to stream select games directly to their consoles without needing to download them. This update was shared in an Xbox Wire post, detailing that Ultimate members can now stream games from the Game Pass catalog, as well as certain owned games, directly on their Xbox Series X, Series S, and Xbox One consoles through cloud streaming. Previously, this feature was available on smart TVs, PCs, smartphones, and Meta Quest headsets, marking this as a significant expansion to console gaming.
For fans feeling the impact of the news that Grand Theft Auto 6 has been delayed until May 2026, there's good news: GTA 5 Enhanced is now accessible on Xbox Game Pass and Game Pass for PC. This is especially exciting for PC gamers, as it marks the first time GTA 5 has been included in the PC Game Pass library.
