Six Games Will Leave Xbox Game Pass In Early January 2025

Update []: Microsoft has now confirmed that all of these will leave the cloud as well (the table has been updated below), along with revealing a few extra Game Pass additions for January 8-14:


Original Story: Microsoft has now revealed the first batch of games leaving Xbox Game Pass in the middle of January, and we have six titles in total exiting the service in a few weeks.

The two biggest leavers here are probably Capcom's Exoprimal and online shooter Insurgency: Sandstorm; the latter of which will be a big miss considering we deemed it one of the best FPS titles in the library.

Here's the full list of games leaving Xbox Game Pass in early January 2025:

Date Game Platform
January 15 Common'hood Console, PC, Cloud
January 15 Escape Academy Console, PC, Cloud
January 15 Exoprimal Console, PC, Cloud
January 15 Figment: Journey into the Mind Console, PC, Cloud
January 15 Insurgency: Sandstorm Console, PC, Cloud
January 15 Those Who Remain Console, PC, Cloud

As ever, you can get at least 20% off these Xbox Game Pass titles before they leave the library - with some often having even higher discounts as part of Microsoft's regular sales promotions. If you want to keep any of these games, it's worth checking your console before they leave to see what sales are ongoing!

We're still waiting on our first Game Pass update for 2025, but we still have a good selection of games confirmed for this year - including a batch of titles already confirmed for January.
