Which titles are leaving the Xbox Game Pass in January 2022?
Other than adding titles, Microsoft also removes certain games from its library. This month it will be removing 7 titles on January 15th. This list includes:
- PUBG, but you don’t need to worry since the game is transitioning to a free-to-play model. (Leaving January 10th)
- Desperados III
- Ghost of a Tale

It’s also worth noting that Microsoft has rebranded the PC version of its subscription service PC game pass. The move comes into play to avoid confusion as Xbox Game Pass is a separate plan from now on with a different library of games. This is because many games on the PC Games Pass aren’t playable on Console.
