Microsoft has now confirmed six titles that will be leaving the Xbox Game Pass lineup later in October. Some of these games are exclusive to the PC version of Xbox Game Pass, but most of them are available on PC and Xbox consoles. All six games will be leaving Xbox Game Pass starting October 15, so anyone interested can prioritize these games and ensure they play them for free through Game Pass while they still can.

Among these games, the most popular is Katana Zero, a 2D action game that received mostly positive reviews when it was originally released in 2019.

While the Xbox Game Pass loses six games later in October, it also gains titles throughout the month. The turn-based strategy game Phoenix Point just joined Xbox Game Pass on October 1, and more titles are expected to release later this month.
