Here's What Might Be Leaving Xbox Game Pass In March 2023

Update (Sat 18th Mar, 2023): We now know of even more games leaving Xbox Game Pass this month, so we've gone ahead and updated the table below with all the confirmed removals from our predictions list so far.

Original story (Sat 4th Feb, 2023): What's leaving Xbox Game Pass in March 2023? Well, Microsoft hasn't confirmed anything just yet, but based on some games that were added to the service this time last year, we can at least make a few predictions ahead of time.

We know that a lot of Xbox users want more advance notice of games leaving Xbox Game Pass, but Microsoft understandably gives us around two weeks right now - and don't forget, publishers sometimes secure late deals with Microsoft to keep their games on Game Pass, even after they've been announced to be leaving!

So, before we take a look at the following list of potential games leaving Xbox Game Pass in March 2023, we want to stress that nothing has been confirmed yet, and this will not be a 100% accurate list by any means. Some of these games might leave, some of these games might stay, and many others might be added to the list.

The most common (but definitely not the only) trend with Xbox Game Pass seems to be that games stick around for one year, so we've gone back to March 2022 to look at the games that were added to Game Pass at the time. That said, we've also added a few games from the March 2021 list as well. Based on those original announcements, here's what we think could potentially leave Xbox Game Pass in March 2023:

As mentioned previously, there could be plenty of additions to this list, and many of these games might stick around on Xbox Game Pass for even longer, but it seems likely that we'll lose at least some of these in March 2023. Our predictions for the past few months have turned out to be around 50-75% correct.

Of course, we've still got a few games set to leave Xbox Game Pass in February 2023 as well, with six games set to depart on February 15th, and another batch set to be removed on February 28th.
