8 Games to Exit Xbox Game Pass in May 2025

Microsoft has announced the games that will be departing from its Xbox Game Pass subscription service on May 15, 2025. A total of eight titles will be leaving, including Brothers: A Tale of Two Sons, Jurassic World Evolution 2, and Little Kitty, Big City.

Xbox Game Pass is an expansive online gaming service available for Xbox and PC platforms. Subscribers can stream games directly on smart devices and consoles, enjoy new releases on day one based on their subscription level, and access a vast library of high-quality games. These can be played with friends on console, PC, or through cloud services. The following eight games will be removed from this catalog:

Games leaving Xbox Game Pass in May are:

• 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 plans to reveal Wave 2 of the May 2025 Game Pass lineup shortly after these titles exit the service.

Earlier this month, Xbox Game Pass Ultimate subscribers received a new benefit: the option to stream select games directly to their consoles without the need for downloading.

This update was shared via an Xbox Wire post, which detailed that Xbox Game Pass Ultimate members can now stream games from the Game Pass catalog and "select games they own" 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 a significant expansion to include console streaming.

In light of the recent news that Grand Theft Auto 6 has been delayed to May 2026, fans eager to dive back into the world of GTA 5 can rejoice. GTA 5 Enhanced is now accessible on Xbox Game Pass and Game Pass for PC, marking the first time this version has been available on PC Game Pass.
