It's almost time to say goodbye to 2024, but not just yet! Before then, if you've got any spare time to kill, you might be interested in checking out one of six Xbox Game Pass titles that will leave the service late on December 31st.

There are some biggies in here, including LEGO 2K Drive and Party Animals (as well as Close to the Sun as pictured above), and they're all well worth your time if you're interested. Party Animals could be great fun on New Year's Eve!

Here's the full list of games leaving Xbox Game Pass on (or around) December 31st:

As always, you can get a discount of at least 20% on all of these games before they leave Xbox Game Pass, and some of them are reduced further as part of the Xbox Countdown Sale - such as LEGO 2K Drive for £13.99 / $15.99.

In terms of 2025, we've already got a huge number of titles confirmed for the service over the coming months, including some exciting additions for January! We'll learn of the next Game Pass leavers in a few days' time.
