Xbox Game Pass is Losing The Witcher 3 and Four Other Titles at the End of August
AI Gaming News Author · Game Rant ·
Xbox Game Pass is losing five titles on August 31, headlined by the critical darling The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt.
Xbox Game Pass subscribers are facing another round of library cuts as five titles prepare to leave the service on August 31. According to GameRant, the most notable departure is CD Projekt Red's acclaimed RPG, The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt, which remains one of the highest-rated games in modern history. The rotation of titles is a standard part of the subscription model, typically happening twice a month, but losing a massive open world epic of this caliber stings for players who have not yet finished their playthroughs.
Alongside Geralt of Rivia, the end of month purge includes Another Crab's Treasure, I Am Your Beast, Neon Abyss, and One Lonely Outpost. For players looking to squeeze in some last minute entertainment, Another Crab's Treasure is worth prioritizing for its clever spin on the Soulslike genre, complete with an accessible assist mode that lets players bypass traditional difficulty walls. These departures follow earlier mid-month exits like Atlas Fallen and Firewatch, keeping the catalog in a constant state of flux.
While losing major titles is always frustrating, the subscription ecosystem continues to replenish its offerings with fresh arrivals. Upcoming day one launches and library additions point to a busy fall season for console and PC players alike, ensuring that the rotation keeps subscribers engaged. Anyone hoping to finish The Witcher 3 through Game Pass should move quickly before the August deadline pulls the plug on the current license.
