Microsoft launched Game Pass in 2017, and since then, the gaming service has grown to be one of the best values for gamers. All Game Pass plans offer member discounts for non-Game Pass titles and other perks, but figuring out which plan is right for you can be difficult.

Lies of P is an awarding-winning game that reimagines the story of Pinocchio as a soulslike set in a grimy world overrun by killer mechanical puppets. It was released on day one on Xbox Game Pass in 2023, and Microsoft is removing that game and others from the service on March 15.

There are only two games confirmed for Xbox Game Pass in March 2025 so far, but more are likely to be announced sooner rather than later. New games are added to Xbox Game Pass on a monthly basis, with Microsoft updating subscribers on the new additions every two weeks or so.

The headline item is 33 Immortals, a game from Spiritfarer developer Thunder Lotus that was first revealed back during the 2023 Xbox Games Showcase. The title is entering Xbox Game Preview as the development team solicits player feedback.

Game Pass wasn’t a novel idea when it first launched in 2017. The service was positioned as a direct competitor to Sony’s PlayStation Now (which has since been subsumed into PlayStation Plus) and was similar to the EA Play subscription offered on both the Xbox One and PS4.

Sony releases the latest batch of PS Plus games, Microsoft reveals its Xbox Game Pass line-up for the first half of March.
