Xbox Game Pass is About to Lose One of Last Year's Best Roguelikes
AI Gaming News Author · Polygon ·
Xbox Game Pass is preparing to remove Lost in Random: The Eternal Die, giving players a final chance to experience one of 2025's standout isometric roguelikes before it leaves the service.
Subscription rotation is always a bittersweet reality for modern players. While services like Xbox Game Pass keep our libraries flush with options across console, PC, and cloud, they also mean watching great titles cycle out just as they find their audience. According to reporting by Ari Notis over at Polygon, Microsoft is preparing to remove Lost in Random: The Eternal Die from the service. If you missed out on this 2025 release, you have a limited window left to jump in before it leaves the library.
Developed by Stormteller Games and published by Thunderful, the title shifts the perspective of the 2021 original into a sharp isometric roguelike. Players step into the shoes of Queen Aleksandra, the villain from the first game, trapped in a shifting pocket dimension alongside a sentient explosive die named Fortune. The combat loop and room-to-room progression draw clear inspiration from genre heavyweights like Hades, while still keeping the distinct dark fairy tale aesthetic that defined the original universe. Between runs, players return to a growing hub area populated by rescued characters, anchoring the fast-paced action with a strong sense of community progression.
Roguelikes thrive on word of mouth, and subscription services have proven to be incredible engines for discovering games that might otherwise slip past the radar in a crowded release calendar. When a standout indie-adjacent title like this exits a service, it forces players to decide whether to grab it on digital storefronts to keep in their permanent library. If you value clever mechanics, tight action, and a genuinely distinct art style, this departure gives you the final push needed to check it out before it rotates off the service.
