Update []: Microsoft has now removed Donut County from the list, meaning we're only losing three games on the 15th! We've updated the list below.
Original Story: Microsoft has just quietly revealed the next batch of four games set to leave Xbox Game Pass in early October, with all of them showing on the official Xbox mobile app as of this morning.
The highlight for us is probably Cocoon, which is a great puzzle adventure title that you should definitely try before it leaves the service, but everything here is worth a look to be honest - even the TMNT game despite its lukewarm reviews.
Here's the full list of games leaving Xbox Game Pass in early October 2025:
| Date | Game | Platform |
| October 15 | Cocoon | Console, PC, Cloud |
| October 15 | Core Keeper | Console, PC, Cloud |
| October 15 | TMNT: Mutants Unleashed | Console, PC, Cloud |
All of these games will be available with a discount of at least 20% until they leave Xbox Game Pass in early October, and you may find some of them discounted by even more as we approach the October 15th removal date.
Microsoft has yet to give us a full breakdown of what's coming to Xbox Game Pass in October, but we already know of loads of titles - which we've highlighted in our big Xbox Game Pass October 2025 "Coming Soon" guide. Stay tuned for more updates to that soon, and we'll be back after the 15th to let you know what's leaving in late October.
