Update: (Wed 18th Mar, 2020 17:34 GMT): There are more! It's also been announced that Battle Chef Brigade, Cities: Skylines, Kingsway, Operencia: The Stolen Sun, Orwell: Keeping an Eye on You and Vampyr will be leaving the Game Pass for PC lineup in the near future.
Original Story: (Wed 18th Mar, 2020 12:50 GMT): As we much as we think Xbox Game Pass is an incredible offering here at Pure Xbox, we're always saddened to see games leave the service, especially when they're as good as this. A total of seven (but really five) games are currently planned to be removed in the near future, including Borderlands: The Handsome Collection and LEGO Worlds.
We've included the full list below, which features Handsome Collection games Borderlands 2 and Borderlands: The Pre Sequel, as well as other favourites such as Vampyr and Operencia: The Stolen Sun. According to a Reddit post, these games are leaving on March 31st, but the Xbox Game Pass App is simply suggesting they're leaving "soon".
- Borderlands: The Handsome Collection
- Borderlands: The Pre-Sequel
- Borderlands 2
- LEGO Worlds
- Operencia: The Stolen Sun
- Vampyr
- The Golf Club 2
It's worth noting we haven't heard anything yet about PC titles, so we'll update accordingly if we do. Regardless, you can keep a regular track of all the incomings and outgoings over at our Xbox Game Pass guide. Let us know which games you're sad to be losing in the comments below.

I already own The Handsome Collection, and those rest does not interest me.
Shame.. I wanted to play Vampyr and the Borderlands games. I may have time to get one in. Now which to pick? 🤔
Don't you get a decent discount if you have them on Game Pass and wish to keep them beyond their time on that service? I don't subscribe myself but if you wanted to keep playing, I thought MS offered a decent discount to own them...
I am sure they have all been on sale too. Maybe download all of the ones you are interested in and/or look at how much they may cost if you don't get around to downloading. Borderlands offers so much game-play with multiple characters to play through the story - each with their own unique abilities that it makes sense to buy those outright (if you like them) but at least you could try them out before deciding to buy...
Just getting into Borderlands now to see what all the fuss is about. I'm impressed so far, and Claptrap has charm and good humour, although I have a feeling he could become annoying....
I have all three Borderlands games physically so no worries there. I already beat Vampyre on PS4 so I am good there and the others don't interest me.
Thanks for the update though 😀
This is the main contention I have with the all-digital push going on in gaming. Game Pass is a fantastic service, I've subscribed a few times, but the games go away. That's why I'll always prefer having a disc, although even those are nothing more than a license now.

Yeah maybe 20%. Pretty good tho.
