Key Takeaways
- Five games are leaving Xbox Game Pass on October 15.

- The games are available at a discount for a limited time.
Microsoft has revealed the five games leaving the Xbox Game Pass subscription service on October 15. New games are added to Xbox Game Pass every single month, but games are also removed from the service on a monthly basis as well. It’s always disappointing whenever games are removed from Xbox Game Pass, but the good news is that subscribers are at least given a couple of weeks to prioritize the departures if they so desire.
Xbox Game Pass game removals happen on two specific days every month. A batch of games is removed on the 15th of every month, and then another batch is given the boot on the last day of every month. This held true last month, with Xbox Game Pass losing a whopping nine games to cap off September 2024.
It remains to be seen how many Xbox Game Pass games will leave at the end of October, but subscribers do know that five games are getting the boot in the middle of the month. It’s now been confirmed that Dyson Sphere Program, Everspace 2, From Space, F1 Manager 2023, and Scorn are all getting removed from Xbox Game Pass on October 15. As always, Xbox Game Pass subscribers have about two weeks to play the games as much as they want before they’re removed, and if they want to buy the games to keep, they can do so at a discount.
List of Xbox Game Pass Games Leaving October 15
- Dyson Sphere Program (PC)
- Everspace 2 (Cloud/Consoles/PC)
- F1 Manager 2023 (Cloud/Consoles/PC)
- From Space (Cloud/Consoles/PC)
- Scorn (Cloud/Consoles/PC)
Out of these, there are a couple that subscribers may want to prioritize over the others. Everspace 2 is the highest-rated Xbox Game Pass game leaving on October 15. A ship combat looter shooter game, Everspace 2 earned mostly positive reviews at the time of its release and has an 83 overall rating according to review aggregate site OpenCritic. The other game subscribers may want to check out before it leaves is sci-fi body horror game Scorn, though not necessarily because of its quality.
Scorn reviews were mixed at best, and the game certainly isn’t for everyone. However, it is the kind of game that Xbox Game Pass subscribers may want to play for spooky season, if nothing else. October is upon us, and so it’s now time to watch scary movies and play horror games. Scorn may be able to scratch that itch, if nothing else. Of course, Game Pass subscribers are encouraged to check out the other games leaving the service as well, to make sure that they play everything they want before they can no longer do so through their subscription.
