Xbox Game Pass may undergo a significant update to its catalog as early as next month. Microsoft has not yet released the official list, but based on the service’s history, it’s possible to make some predictions for February 2026. It appears that some titles added about a year ago may leave the subscription platform. This movement is common, as the licensing agreements between Microsoft and publishers usually have a limited duration, typically 12 to 24 months. Therefore, subscribers who haven’t played certain titles yet should pay attention so as not to miss the chance.
How does this rotation work? Microsoft usually gives about two weeks’ notice about departures. However, there is an important detail: agreements can be renewed at the last minute, which means a game announced as ‘leaving soon’ may end up staying. Thus, the predictions for February, although based on the service’s pattern, are not 100% certain. The list you will see next is an informed look, but subject to change until the official announcement from the Redmond giant.
Which games are on the list of possible departures?
To arrive at this projection, we analyzed the games that joined the catalog in February 2025, since the most common trend is a one-year stay. Additionally, we also checked the additions from February 2024, as some titles may remain for two full years. The result is a mix of possibilities that includes everything from large-scale RPGs to niche adventures. The accuracy of these predictions usually varies between 30% and 80%, so it’s best to view this as a friendly warning to prioritize your gaming.
Meanwhile, the service continues to receive exciting new additions in this early part of 2026, such as the recent releases of Resident Evil Village and Star Wars Outlaws. Therefore, even with some possible losses, Game Pass remains one of the best deals for Brazilian gamers, offering a steady stream of experiences for an affordable monthly cost. Keep an eye on the official Xbox app and our channels for the definitive confirmation, which should come in the coming weeks.
