However, it’s that time again, andsix Game Pass games will be leaving the serviceon console, Cloud, and PC. Fortunately, there’s still some time to rush through these games before they head out.
Currently, the six titles will leaveXbox Game Passon February 15, giving players a little under two weeks to cram in as much of these games as they can. While some of these titles have a runtime that makes beating them a pretty impossible task, most of the games leaving this month have campaigns that can be beaten in a reasonable time-frame - though players should bear in mind that some of these games might not be best enjoyed by rushing through.
