With an OpenCritic average score of 83, Bloodstained: Ritual of the Night is one of the most critically acclaimed titles from this upcoming wave of departures. The popular metroidvania has been available to Xbox Game Pass members since February 2024, so its ongoing run on the service will last a full year. Ditto for A Little to the Left, Indivisible, and Tales of Arise. Xbox Game Pass users have already been able to play Bloodstained: Ritual of the Night between September 2019 and March 2021, raising the possibility of the game once again returning to the service sometime in the future.

Out of these seven soon-to-be-departing titles, Return to Grace is the easiest to complete from start to finish in one day. According to How Long To Beat’s crowdsourced data, a typical playthrough of the sci-fi walking sim takes between two and five hours, which potentially makes it beatable in a single sitting. Cozy puzzler A Little to the Left is also a fairly short and sweet game, though obtaining all of its trophies in a single day is a much bigger challenge.

Xbox Game Pass February 2025 Removals Are Currently Outpacing New Releases

Xbox Game Pass has added three new titles since the start of February 2025 and currently has just one more confirmed game for this month—Obsidian’s Avowed, which is scheduled to arrive on the 18th. Between that and these seven upcoming departures, Microsoft’s subscription service will likely lose more games than it adds this month. That wasn’t the case in January, but it has become a trend lately, as Xbox Game Pass monthly removals have consistently outpaced new releases from August to December 2024.
