Five games are scheduled to exit the Xbox Game Pass subscription service on Thursday, May 15. The Xbox Game Pass library undergoes monthly updates, with new additions and removals. While it's always disappointing to see titles leave, there's some positive news regarding the May 15 departures.

Initially, the Xbox Game Pass 'Leaving Soon' section suggested that eight games would be removed on May 15. Reports indicated that Jurassic World Evolution 2, Little Kitty, Big City, and Planet of Lana would be among the departures, but these titles will actually stay longer. Subscribers can relax, as they'll have more time to enjoy these games.

However, five games are confirmed to leave Xbox Game Pass on May 15: Brothers: A Tale of Two Sons, Chants of Sennaar, Dune: Spice Wars, Hauntii, and The Big Con. Among these, Brothers: A Tale of Two Sons stands out as a must-play. This short but emotionally gripping adventure comes from Josef Fares, the acclaimed developer behind A Way Out, It Takes Two, and Split Fiction.

Xbox Game Pass Games Leaving Soon

• Brothers: A Tale of Two Sons
• Chants of Sennaar
• Dune: Spice Wars
• Hauntii
• The Big Con

Subscribers are encouraged to try these games before they're removed. While completing them all may be challenging, the option to purchase them at a 20% discount while they're still on Game Pass is a great opportunity. Act fast if you're interested in keeping any of these titles.

While it's always tough to see games leave, Xbox Game Pass continues to offer exciting new additions. April 2025 was a standout month, featuring potential Game of the Year contenders like Blue Prince and Clair Obscur: Expedition 33, alongside surprises like Grand Theft Auto 5 and The Elder Scrolls 4: Oblivion Remastered. Looking ahead, Doom: The Dark Ages arrives on Game Pass Ultimate on May 15, softening the blow of these departures.
