Just last month, Microsoft announced that the service had reached 18 million subscribers, an uptick from the 15 million figure Game Pass was at in September last year. Xbox Game Pass offers access to a growing selection of more than 100 games on Xbox, Android, and PC platforms. It costs $9.99 per month for the basic version and $14.99 for the Ultimate version. Those who opt for the Ultimate version also enjoy the EA Play subscription service. Xbox Game Pass members also earn a discount to save up to 20% on titles available with Xbox Game Pass, and 10% on EA digital purchases with EA Play membership, included in Xbox Game Pass Ultimate.
What Are the Games Leaving This February On Game Pass?
The following games will leave Xbox Game Pass this February 15: De Blob (Xbox One) World of Horror (PC) Ninja Gaiden (Xbox 360). On February 16, Shadows of the Damned (from EA Play, Xbox 360) will also be removed. If the game leaves the service or the subscriber ends their subscription, catalog access is suspended until the subscriber purchases the game or renews their subscription, but their in-game progress will be saved. Another limitation of the service is that if the game is an Xbox 360 title it will be backward-compatible and must be played on Xbox Series X or Xbox Series S or Xbox One; it cannot be downloaded to the subscriber’s Xbox 360 console unless they choose to purchase it outright.
