Xbox Game Pass Logo

Xbox Game Pass subscribers, get ready to say goodbye to a handful of titles this month. Ahead of the official announcement on Xbox Wire, the Game Pass webpage has leaked that eight games will be leaving the service in mid-December, including some noteworthy titles like Forza Horizon 4 and The Quarry.

Very few Microsoft studio games ever leave Game Pass, obviously it is one of the perks. However, Forza Horizon 4 is leaving storefronts! Licenses are expiring, and you can’t buy the DLC anymore. Only the Standard, Deluxe, and Ultimate versions of the game will be available until December 15, 2024. A common theme amongst annualised sports titles. If you’re interested, grab this game before it’s gone!

The removal of these titles from Game Pass might disappoint some subscribers. However, the service constantly evolves, with new games arriving regularly. So, be sure to check out the latest additions to the library and explore some new gaming experiences.

Here’s the full list of games leaving Game Pass on December 15th:

While we wait for the official list of upcoming games, the Game Pass and Crash Bandicoot Twitter accounts revealed one exciting addition! Crash Team Racing Nitro-Fueled will be coming to the service on December 4th!


While it’s always disappointing to see games leaving the Xbox Game Pass Ultimate and Xbox Cloud Gaming library, it’s important to remember that new titles are regularly added to the service. Players can look forward to the arrival of exciting new games in the near future.

Players can also save up to 20% with your membership discount to keep these games in your library!
