Update: With the announcement of its next wave of Xbox Game Pass titles, Microsoft has confirmed that the below games will be leaving on January 29th.

Original Story:

Microsoft hasn’t announced the next slate of titles that will be coming soon to Xbox Game Pass (aside from Remedy’s Control releasing for PC subscribers this week). However, some of the titles that will be leaving in February have been revealed. A quick look at the “Leaving Soon” section of the Xbox Game Pass Library page confirms that Final Fantasy 15 Royal Edition on Xbox One will be gone soon.

Final Fantasy 15 Windows Edition is also on the way out along with Gris, Death’s Gambit and Reigns: Game of Thrones on PC. Both platforms will be losing out on Sea Salt, Indivisible and Fishing Sim World: Pro Tour as well. So if you’re looking to try out any of these games soon, they’ll be exiting the Game Pass library “in the next two weeks.”

As for what can be expected this year, Microsoft has confirmed that more Final Fantasy titles will be coming to Game Pass this year. While it didn’t explicitly outline which ones, specific launch dates are on the cards at the very least. In the meantime, stay tuned for more details on Xbox Game Pass’s offerings for February 2021 in the coming days.

The Game Pass subscription service that Microsoft rolled out feels too good to be true at times, but apparently it’s a sustainable service we’ve been told so I guess that part of it doesn’t matter. Games have steadily come and went and now we have the next batch of games heading to the service on the console side at the latter half of this month.

The big two are A Plague Tale: Innocence, a narrative-driven stealth title that was one of the best surprises of last year, and Indivisible, a sidescroller action game set in a fantastical world. Both of those games will come to Xbox Game Pass January 23rd. The other two titles are the action strategy hybrid Sea Salt and Fishing Sim World: Pro Tour, a multiplayer based fishing simulation title. Those will be available on the 30th, right before the month ends.

The games will come to the Game Pass service starting on January 23rd to download for Xbox One. You can also see the games coming to the PC version of Game Pass through here.
