Topic: Please help me with Game Pass

Hello everybody,

I have a Xbox Series X and Game Pass. I want to play through as many Game Pass games as possible. Is there a good resource that gets updated showing when each game joined the service? I want to prioritise the games that are leaving soonest.

Second of all, can you give me a general idea of how long games from each publisher stay in the service? I read Square Enix games tend to be 1 year?

@Oval_Griffin In general, most big games stay on for at least a year, and there's quite a few titles that stay on for longer than that. PureXbox always releases lists of games about to disappear and new games that are added, so it's a good idea to keep an eye on this web site.

Also, by navigating to the Game Pass page from the Home screen of your console, you will see that it'll show you both recently added games as well as games that are leaving soon:

The Game Pass mobile app has the same information, and of course there's also the Game Pass web page to tell you what's coming as well:

And here's a couple of other handy links to get you started:

@ThanosReXXX Thank you honestly for all the effort that went into your post.

But I already had all that info. I wish theres a list that says exactly when every game got in the service.

The games in Leaving Soon leave too soon, I wont have time to play through them.

That is why I need to know when each game arrived, so I can have some sort of order.

@Oval_Griffin You're welcome, the effort was my pleasure. I like looking up stuff online.

As for your wish/question: seeing as there isn't any kind of official or unofficial website that has a list of titles coming or leaving by date, all you have left and will need to do is keep an eye on this site here, or on MajorNelson.com, seeing as that is where the info of what's coming and going is originally coming from.

There isn't any definitive counter for currently available games, but if you simply look at the backlog of what was introduced over the last six months by browsing back either on here or on the other website, you'll be able to guesstimate how long these games will still be available for. As mentioned, it's usually around a year, with the odd exception either being available for longer or shorter, in which case it's usually specifically mentioned.

@Oval_Griffin, I just found this resource which appears to be a managed index of Game Pass games, including when added and time in the program. Hopefully this will help you out.

@DuckyBronco Yes!
