Game Pass potential departure dates​

Last updated - 2024-10-12
What is this?
Game prices in the Xbox store have a UTC end date associated with them. These dates generally fall into 5 categories :
  1. The item is currently on sale. These are usually the weekly sale items that end Tuesday mornings at 09:59:59 UTC.
  2. The item will go on sale, usually within 2-3 weeks. These are usually set to switch at 23:59:59 UTC, like the weekly sale on Monday evenings. Some of the major annual sales (Spring, Summer, Black Friday, Holiday) start on Thursday evening UTC, and some times appear to be random.
  3. The item is on Game Pass and is not currently or going to be on sale in the next few weeks. Third party games generally cluster around 09:59:59 UTC on the 1st and 16th of each month. Currently, at least one game is associated with every 1st and 16th through January 2025. The dates then spread out, ending with Human Fall Flat on July 1, 2028.
  4. First party and EA Play titles are farther out, starting in 2049, with many in 2799 and 9998.
  5. No date - some items do not have a price and so don't have a date. If the item is part of a bundle that has a price, the date from the bundle is used.
The list below uses the dates associated with games on Game Pass and EA Play. Time stamps in red are the regular Game Pass departure times and titles in red are confirmed to be leaving, either from Microsoft's regular news postings or by devs / publishers. Items available through Game Pass Core, currently on sale or not available for purchase are also color coded.

The date associated with a Game Pass game is not a guarantee it will leave on that date, but since March 2023 when the price data started getting analyzed, every game that's left Game Pass had been flagged as leaving on that date. It's given a number of people an extra heads up on the generally 2 week notice Microsoft provides.

If you have any questions about the list, please ask in the thread.

On my Series X, I'm noticing that my external drive doesn't shut off. The green LED strip stays lit even when the console is asleep. Is this normal?
It's in the options whether to power off storage or not.

https://www.reddit.com/r/buildapcsales/ is my place to look. Tags by part as well, such as https://www.reddit.com/r/buildapcsales/?f=flair_name%3A%22SSD%20-%20M.2%22 for your M2 SSD needs. I don't even have a current reddit account, I got my previous one banned for teling a mod to fuck off in DMs.

I don't "like" Twitter and its ilk, but sometimes yeah you need somewhere anything can be. During hurricanes and other serious things I've used it to get info that would be impossible otherwise.

 
Now you got me looking at my MS point balance to get a Series X. lol
I Think if you're going from a One S (or VCR One especially) to a Series X then yeah, it's totally worth the upgrade to a Series X. It feels much more like a generational leap so you'll get more wow factor from it.

 
If you're a gamepass user consider extending your sub out a bit, the price will almost certainly go up next year and there is also the family plan which seems to be 5 people can share one GamePass Ultimate sub, for a slightly higher price (similar to Nintendo Switch Online but thats 8 people in a family).  

If its like the PS+ conversion stuff that happened this year when they do announce price hikes they tend to lock out adding time and stuff until prices change.  I topped off to 3 years for my gamepass ultimate using MS rewards, and also activated the new "auto redeem 1 month of gamepass ultimate" option in MS Rewards.

Thanks for pointing out the new auto redeem options - here's what I see in the Rewards app now. Very doable with a few minutes effort every day to get GP Ultimate every month with points

1 Month GP Ultimate - 10,500

1 Month PC GP - 6,750

$10 GC - 8,750

I think it's still cheaper to wait for your sub to expire and then do the 3 years and 1 month conversion. That might change over time though.

 
Vampire Survivors is amazing. I love the progression. Struggling one round and then getting weapons to level 8 the next round and just watching the baddies melt is satisfying.
 
Is anyone buying anything? I’m definitely gonna get Cyberpunk. The TMNT collection is higher than I wanted but I I want those arcade games.
 
I am debating on getting a series s as a bedroom console mostly for tv streaming since my ancient Samsung 1080p tv isn't a smart tv.  Rokus have been terrible and while I like the nvidia shield tv the app I use the most is Hulu, and it won't work for some reason.

I Think Target will have it for $20 next week if I remember the ads right and don't mind physical.

Besides that, I was able to reach $50 on the punch card with no effort and was just buying shit for sake of buying shit but getting DMC HD Collection (3rd or 4th time I've gotten all the DMC games??), Mr Driller Drillland, Assassin's Creed Rogue, Ace Combat, Yakuza 6 and Mega Man 11.

 
Pentiment is exactly what I thought it'd be: an excellently written and deep choose your own adventure novel. That said, it's absolutely not for me as decisions feel too driven and combat is replaced with puzzles. Certainly not a 10/10 game given it appeals to a very niche crowd, but in that vacuum likely comes close.

It is kind of boring though when nothing can touch you and you're just sitting there waiting out the clock

I should be all over it, yet here I am with a big dose of hopium going back to WoW.

 
Never understood the appeal of Twitter, Facebook; any of it. It could all burn tomorrow and I wouldn't notice. Maybe people will be forced to research news now than regurgitate it.
It got me into 3D printing and 3D printing firearms, so there are some good nuggets of information in there.
 
I don't have a movie to give away this time, but I'll send a screen pass with a lot of choices to the first two people to like this post.

 
Any one remember from last year when the Microsoft hidden gift card email came out. I know it was before black Friday and Christmas.

I'm purchasing a series s with my Microsoft points and didn't want to cash in this week if the free gift card emails are about to go out

Yup, I been clicking all over the emails I've received but nothing yet.

 
I am going to end up getting the Atari 50th Anniversary collection based on this one game:

https://youtu.be/KebuUPO0eG4

I was going to wait for a sale since I already own several other Atari compilations, but this one game is right up my alley. 

 
Well I just had some "fun" with my Series X this morning. I installed a new Seagate 2TB memory expansion yesterday and it is quite close the ethernet port. I am not sure what happened, but my ethernet port stopped working after that. Maybe I pushed up against the port and shorted something. I was able to remove the the ethernet cable and connect it last night and get it to work. This morning same issue, but this time the ethernet port refused to work.  I disconnected the ethernet cable to switch to wifi. The XBox still insisted that the ethernet cable was connected. I tried cold rebooting. Still said the wired connection was in use with nothing being in the port. At this point I went scorched earth and did a system reset which finally got the XBox to recognize that there was nothing connected to the ethernet port.  Unfortunately had to go through the whole console setup BS on my phone. I wish XBox had something like "forget network connection settings" instead of forcing you to do a system reset when something goes haywire. I don't get why the XBox refuses to let you switch to wifi with  the ethernet cable being connected. Seems like a bad design. 

I guess now I need to see about getting my Series X ethernet port repaired. I will wait on that  for now.  

Edit:

I checked online and this appears to be a known issue with inserting a new expansion card.  So maybe it is not a hardware issue with the port. I don't feel like reconnecting the ethernet cable at this point. I will test when I am in the mood for more "fun"

Any suggestions for controller charging docks?  I currently use the Xbox branded rechargeable packs, but get tired of having to connect them to my console to charge.

Holy shit, I had no idea. That's awful. I think we're all interested how this shakes out, it's not that we don't want a card.

New trailer, I think release date announced tonight! Ignore that blue.

Is this just a X issue or does it also affect the S?

That looks great. The collection has Food Fight, which I played the hell out of in the old Arcade Room (and can still probably get some playtime achievements out of if it still works).

Missing a few games I enjoyed on their systems, but I'm not sure how the rights line up for them. It looks like Desert Falcon would've been eligible. The 2600 version was in Arcade Room, but the 7800 version looked a lot better. Midnight Magic would've been nice. Looks like Atari licensed the name from Broderbund, but developed their own take on it. Not sure where that leaves it. Looks like a bunch of others are owned by other companies, even though Atari was the developer for the 7800 port.

I have a series S and I am not seeing the same problem on that console. It could very well be something wrong with my configuration. I have a 12 TB external USB drive for XBox One/360 games and I went from a 1TB expansion card to a 2TB on the series X. I guess I could test the 2TB expansion on the series S as well. I am still investigating when I have time. I just took the 2TB out of the series X and the ethernet is working again. Seems odd.

Food fight is a favorite of mine as well :) I used to play that a lot at a local fast food joint/arcade called Burger Time back in the day. I assume you mean "Game Room"? I bought a bunch of the Atari games on Game Room as well. I spent easily over $100 on Game Room purchases so $40 for this collection seems cheap in comparison. Game Room was such a rip off.

I only have nostalgia for the games I played on the Atari back in the day and I never played Desert Falcon because it came much later in the systems life. I don't think they did any 7800 games for any of these Atari collections. Only 2600/5200/Arcade. The 5200 selection is pretty lacking on the previous collection I bought. The 5200 was the first system I purchased myself when I had my first job (McDonald's). I played the hell out of Montezumas Revenge on the 5200. Star Raiders was a favorite of mine too. The 5200 had some good ports of arcade games of the early 80's (Joust, Asteroids, Galaxian, Pacman)

I'm not really an Atari fan but the amount of passion in this compilation is incredible. I ended up buying this just for the Atari Jaguar games (Fight for Life!!) and now I hope this becomes the standard for all compilations going forward. Just the prospect of the likes of Capcom, Konami, Nintendo, etc doing the same for their next compilations makes me wanna rebuy their old games for the umpteenth time.

Yeah, I meant Game Room. IIRC, Food Fight was the only game I bought for it. Didn't bite on the few times some bundles went on sale, and I think the games were delisted without much, if any, warning. Maybe I bought Dodge 'Em, would need to fire it up to check.

I didn't realize the 7800 library only had 59 games. I had 24, nearly half. Food Fight, Robotron 2084 and Desert Falcon got a lot of playtime. Had the ports of Donkey Kong, Donkey Kong Jr. and Mario Bros. Didn't know WTF was going on with Impossible Mission, and years later I found out that port couldn't be beat anyway because of a bug. Beat F-18 Hornet by earning the Top Gun rank for clearing all missions with an Ace rating.

There are 7 7800 games in the 50 collection, though only 2 were ones I had (Asteroids and Centipede). Looks like I only had 2 of the 2600 games (Asteroids and Combat), though played a few others (Adventure, Dodge 'Em, Yars Revenge) and had the 7800 version of RealSports Baseball. Never played a 5200 or Jaguar, and don't remember which game I played on my one cousin's Lynx way back when.

 
Glad to hear all the love for Food Fight. It was the first game I sought out to add to my Atgames Legends ultimate and it still holds up. I’ll definitely be getting the Atari 50.

Love Food Fight. Just fired it up on my Xbox Series S in Retroarch MAME. Hope still to get the Atari 50 when it goes on sale for the nostalgia stories.

Colecovision and Atari 5200 were my first consoles (hand me downs from when my parents used to play games).  My neighbor had a 2600 that we played it a lot, but even back then I was impressed by how much better the sound and graphics on my consoles were.

I played a lot of Game Room when it first came out. I 100% completed all of the achievements and some of them were quite a pain to knock out as I remember. I will occasionally boot it up to play some of the Konami arcade games that were also a part of the service. I remember the folks at Giant Bomb did some funny videos about how sad Game Room was near the end of it's life. Game Room had some neat features when the service was active. Now it's just a lame classic video game launcher.

I always wanted to get a 7800 and Jaguar, but I never got around to it. I sold my 5200 long ago. I did not start holding onto my video game purchases until the Nintendo consoles first came out.

I am still investigating when I have time. I just took the 2TB out of the series X and the ethernet is working again. Seems odd.
I have done some more testing on the Series X. After I reboot the Series X I get the weird errors with the ethernet not working. I have to do a full shutdown, remove the expansion card, and start up the Serie X. Ethernet works and then I can insert the expansion card and everything is happy until I shutdown the XBox. I guess I can try keeping the XBox in instant on power mode for now and see how long it continues to work.

I never had this problem with the 1TB expansion card. Maybe there is some firmware update with the newer expansion cards causing this issue?

Since my birthday is in January, starting in my preteen years, if I held onto my Christmas money, I'd usually have a good amount by late January when the birthday cards came in. I think it was 1988 when I used the double windfall to get a 7800. The first console I bought myself. Not sure where I have it. I think it was included in a bundle of stuff I got from my parents a few years back when they wanted to clear stuff out of their house. My parents had bought a 2600 for the family, and my grandparents did as well for when we visited, which my parents got when my grandmother passed. I have at least one of the 2600s, maybe both.

 
First console also was a Colecovision and I loved the shit out of that thing. Had all the stupid controller add ons for baseball and racing. Those were the days when something like Donkey Kong Jr. was able to be on every console out there.
 
My dad bought a Pong/Tennis/Hockey machine at Radio Shack.  Not sure what brand.  Maybe Realistic?  Did they sell other brands then?  All I know is we had a Pong machine of some sort.

Later we got a 2600 for Christmas.  My brothers and I would buy or ask for games for our birthdays and Christmas.  I even traded a few with kids at school.  One kid was a huge pot head so his games smelled like weed.  

With my paper route money I bought a NES with the Robot at JC Penny's (retail department store similar to Sears).  I think probably 8th grade.  Took it on the county bus to get it home.  Barely ever used the robot but did play lots of other games on it.

We also had a Colecovision at some point. 

In HS I gamed more on a my Atari computers.  Kid I went to school with had a couple hundred games he pirated.

I bought a used 5200 that I barely used.

My one brother had various Sega and Nintendo consoles as well.  Didn't play much on those.

Not sure what happened to my NES.  Later in my 20s a friend of mine was tossing his NES and a ton of games.  I took it and put it in my closet until I moved out of my parents and set it out by the curb.  Pretty sure someone picked it up.  There were a ton of games.  More than I ever had as a kid.

My wife had her childhood 2600 in storage.  It didn't work when we tried to start it up.  I think at least the power switch was bad.  Perhaps the jack the power adapter hooked up.  Bought the parts online and had a guy at work (we have several solder stations at work) replace the bad parts.   Don't think we have many games for it and haven't connected it in years though.

I think I will check out the Atari 50 game collection.   The documentary part of it will likely keep me more interested in it then just a collection of 50 year old games. We have one of the retro consoles and I think used it less then 2 hours.  But the history part playing through it as it evolved sounds cool.  And I missed years of Atari games.

My dad got me a used 7800 out of the classifieds as my first console. Came with ten 7800 games and about forty 2600 games. Wow was 7800 Pole Position a beautiful game!

Along the way I also had a 5200, Lynx (with ac adaptor), and Jaguar.

Nice post man :) I always dreamed of owning an Atari computer back in the day. I ended up getting a Commodore 128 I pirated many C64 games. Those were the days. Go to a friends house and copy games to floppy disks :)

I spent a good hour playing games and checking out the extra content in the Atari 50th Anniversary collection just now. In my opinion this collection is well worth the $40.

The Colecovision was another console I desired back in the day and never got to play on.

Thanks for sharing that. That's cool how you worked out your Christmas/Birthday gifts. I was never that smart lol.
