Now, Xbox Game Pass users have an idea of which games to check out before they finally leave the service.
Xbox Game Pass Games Leaving This January 2023
As per the latest news story by Game Rant, an Xbox Game Pass update disclosed which game offerings are potentially leaving the service in the first month of the new year.
Even if Microsoft kept mum about games bidding farewell to the service, Xbox gamers now have an idea.
Game Rant notes that the official announcement could potentially be on Jan. 3. But even before the word from Microsoft comes out, the list of games is now out via an update.
The Xbox app disclosed that games like "Danganronpa: Trigger Happy Havoc Anniversary Edition" are heading out.
However, it is worth noting that the list of games might still change. Game Rant reports that even official announcements from Microsoft remain susceptible to last-minute changes. More so, a leak might not be the final list of titles saying goodbye to the service.
Aside from the visual novel adventure, games like "Nobody Save the World" and "Windjammers 2" are also exiting the Game Pass library.
The leak suggests that five games are leaving the subscription gaming platform this January, including titles like "The Anacrusis" and "Pupperazi."
According to a recent report by ComicBook.com, these offerings are potentially leaving on January 15. It essentially gives fans of these titles a couple more days to enjoy them before parting ways.
