As the end of June approaches, Xbox Game Pass subscribers will soon bid farewell to five titles. On June 30, FIFA 22, F.I.S.T.: Forged In Shadow Torch, Stranded Deep, Story of Seasons: Friends of Mineral Town, and Sword and Fairy: Together Forever will be removed from the service. While it’s always disappointing to see games leave, players have until then to enjoy these titles and can take advantage of a 20% discount if they wish to purchase and keep them.
This transition highlights the dynamic nature of Xbox Game Pass, which continues to offer new and exciting games despite the occasional departure.
Highlights

The five games leaving Xbox Game Pass on June 30 have now been revealed. Each month, Xbox Game Pass typically sees two rounds of removed titles: one in the middle of the month, and one at the end, although the service tends to add more than it removes overall.
Just a few days ago, Xbox Game Pass lost five awesome games, with the likes of High on Life and Bramble: The Mountain King leaving the service for the time being. However, the next set of games also being cut from Xbox Game Pass has already been announced, giving players a couple of weeks to play them while they”re still available. It”s always a shame to see games leave Xbox Game Pass, but many do eventually find their way back onto it at some point in the future.

FIFA 22”s online servers are set to shut down permanently in November, so this could be the perfect opportunity to revisit one of the best FIFA games ever before its online functionalities are gone for good. F.I.S.T.: Forged In Shadow Torch is an interesting Metroidvania with fantastic visuals and a unique protagonist, while Stranded Deep is a pretty hardcore survival game, even by the genre”s standards. Story of Seasons: Friends of Mineral Town is an immensely charming life-simulator, and Sword and Fairy: Together Forever is a fun time for JRPG fans. There”s a lot to enjoy here, so even though these games are leaving Xbox Game Pass, there”s still time to give them a try.
Microsoft has yet to reveal which games will be leaving the service in July, but it”ll be a sad moment regardless of what titles are cut.
