  • A handful of games are leaving the service, including two Like a Dragon! titles.

Ready for more games?

The next batch of games headed to Xbox Game Pass has been unveiled, as shared via Xbox Wire on Monday. Over the next couple of weeks, subscribers can look forward to a number of first and third-party titles joining the service, including Asobo Studio and Xbox Game Studios' Microsoft Flight Simulator 2024. Goat Simulator Remastered is also on the way, bringing players a smoother way to engage in zany antics.

There's also some games that were already available in Xbox Game Pass Ultimate and PC Game Pass that are now filtering down to Xbox Game Pass Standard, the lower-end tier of Microsoft's subscription service that was introduced earlier this year.

You'll find the list of games coming to Xbox Game Pass below, with the dates each title arrives and the exact tiers or services the game is being added to.

What's leaving Xbox Game Pass on November 15?

As always, there's a few games leaving the service soon.

Games rotate out (and sometimes back in) through Xbox Game Pass every month. If you want to keep playing something after it leaves, then naturally, you'll need to make sure to buy it. You'll get a discount for buying a game while it's still in Xbox Game Pass, so buy every title you still want to play and you'll save money!

That's extra important this month, as there's a couple of notable departures in the form of two games from the Like a Dragon! franchise. Here's everything leaving Xbox Game Pass on November 15:

  • Dicey Dungeons 
  • Dungeons 4 
  • Goat Simulator 
  • Like a Dragon: Ishin! 
  • Like a Dragon: The Man Who Erased His Name 
  • Persona 5 Tactica
  • Somerville

The Xbox Series X Digital Edition ditches the disc drive to give you $50 in additional savings. The white console is otherwise largely unchanged, save for a new CPU process that should boost power efficiency slightly.

    I only came here to say that it's probably about time to rename this website to Xbox gaming central. The top stories for months now have been filled with gaming, games and more games. I wonder why I keep coming back.
