TheXbox Game Passservice has provided a ton of content to those who pay the fee for a subscription, withnew games added on the regular. However, as games are routinely added to its catalog, others are typically removed for some amount of time, which will include some fairly big titles this time around.
WhileXbox Game Pass will soon be getting Gears Tactics, it will lose some significant titles on April 30. This will include the likes ofFallout 4,Wolfenstein: The New Order, andBraid.

At the time of their release,Fallout 4andWolftenstein: The New Orderrenewed two series that had not been heard from in a while.Fallout 4was announced to be Bethesda’s most successful gamein early 2017, which is impressive givenSkyrim’s continued popularity. Further,Wolftenstein: The New Orderbreathed life into a decayed series that had fallen out of relevance alongside other id Software properties that would later gain traction again, such as theDoomseries.
Braidwas an early hit on the Xbox 360 in 2008. It had proven to be a formidable platformer in its own right, so its removal fromXbox Game Passmay come as a disappointment to some dedicated fans. However, the game is still available for purchase on other digital stores such as Steam and the Xbox Games Store.
Overall, Xbox Game Pass is still a steal for Xbox One owners and PC gamers. Populartitles like NieR Automata regularly hit the service, which allow players to experience games that may go under the radar, or more so than fans of lesser-known games would want them to.NieR Automata, for instance, was a game that gave notoriety to an otherwise niche series.
Xbox Game Passis currently available at $9.99 per month on Xbox One and $4.99 per month on PC; Xbox Game Pass Ultimate is currently available at $14.99 per month.
