Games you have to play before they leave Game Pass on May 31

May has been a busy month for Xbox Game Pass with plenty of new additions, but we’re set to lose some great titles pretty soon as well.

Your subscription will be lighter by four titles starting on May 31. The count rises by one if you’re using the PC Game Pass. While this process is pretty routine, there are a couple of games that you should try playing in the last couple of weeks if you haven’t tried them out yet.

All Xbox Game Pass Departures in May 2025

Here’s the complete list of all the games that will no longer be part of the Xbox Game Pass after May 31.

• Cassette Beasts
• Humanity
• Remnant 2
• Slayers X: Terminal Afterthought: Vengeance of the Slayer
• Firework (PC Game Pass)

Remnant 2 is certainly going to be the game I miss most, although it has been on the subscription for a long time. It’s one of those few games that I picked up after its addition to the subscription and completed in the next few weeks. While it’s not the easiest of shooters to mess around with, give it a try during the last week of May.

Cassette Beasts has been an underrated title if you’re into indies and games that involve catching monsters. It’s neither Pokémon nor TemTem by any means, but there’s plenty of fun gameplay, and you can also finish the game by picking it up now.

I haven’t played much of either Humanity or Slayers X, but they’re both neat titles in their own right. Humanity is a good fit for those who love puzzle platformers, while Slayers X is a great tribute to old-school FPS titles.

Puzzle lovers have more to miss this month as Firework is also leaving the PC Game Pass. I have played a bit of the horror puzzle title, and it’s certainly fun. All these titles will be available until May 31 on the Xbox Game Pass.

May saw the addition of fantastic titles like Doom: The Dark Ages as Day One launches. I personally can’t wait to see what we have in store for us in June.
