Xbox Game Pass Updates: Departures and New Additions

The Xbox Game Pass for March 2025 sees the departure of popular games like Yakuza Kiwami 1 & 2 and Monster Hunter Rise by the end of the month. Microsoft is considering introducing a free, ad-supported tier for Xbox Game Pass to potentially reach 50 million subscribers this year, enhancing accessibility for more gamers. This initiative aligns with predictions by industry analysts and hints from Xbox officials, indicating the possibility of broader market appeal, particularly in regions like Africa and Southeast Asia. Despite these changes, the service offers new additions such as Atomfall from March 27, which promises a Fallout-esque post-apocalyptic experience, and the Blizzard Arcade Collection featuring classics like The Lost Vikings. Furthermore, Xbox Game Pass continues to expand its offerings with new titles announced for April 2025, including 'South of Midnight', ensuring a strong lineup for subscribers in the coming months.
