Microsoft will be removing Exo One, Paw Patrol: The Movie - Adventure City Calls, and Spelunky 2 from its Xbox Game Pass subscription service after today. Every 15th of the month brings a wave of sadness for Xbox Game Pass subscribers as this marks the first batch of removals.
Microsoft has established a pattern for adding and removing games on Xbox Game Pass. When new games are added, there are usually two announcements per month, with games being added on different days over a two-week period. Similarly, game removals are usually announced in two different batches, but the exact removal dates are easier to predict. While there are exceptions, games typically leave the Xbox Game Pass lineup on the 15th and last day of each month.

Xbox Game Pass subscribers should prioritize Spelunky 2 as the game to play. This highly-acclaimed roguelike platformer offers a challenging experience with co-op support. It is one of the top-rated games on Xbox Game Pass, making its removal from the service a significant loss. Microsoft is expected to announce the games leaving Xbox Game Pass on July 31, possibly providing hints beforehand in the Leaving Soon section. Subscribers should stay vigilant.
The announcement for the games leaving Xbox Game Pass on July 31 will also include the upcoming games for the second half of the month. Among the confirmed releases, Techtonica is scheduled for July 18, while The Wandering Village is set to release on July 20 and Venba on July 31.
