Out of all of these, we're really excited about The Messenger and Observation. They're great games you should try out.

A few days ago, we reported that a number of games are leaving Xbox Game Pass soon. Well, now we know that they're departing on June 30. You can take a look at the games leaving both Xbox Game Pass on Xbox One and PC below.

  • Battlefleet Gothic: Armada (PC)
  • Die for Valhalla! (PC)
  • Life Is Strange 2 (console)
  • Metal Slug X (console and PC)
