Xbox has revealed the new games that are coming to Xbox Game Pass this month, as well as the titles that will be leaving. Four new games are being added to Xbox Game Pass in December, with five more games returning to certain tiers. Some of the big name games leaving this month include Rise of the Tomb Raider, as well as Xbox exclusives like Party Animals and Forza Horizon. However, with the new games coming this month, there will be 13 games leaving in total. This is more than normal as Xbox usually only lists the games leaving every fortnight.

The first set of games will leave on December 15, so there is less than two weeks left to play them. Some of the notable games leaving in two weeks’ time include Amnesia: The Bunker, Forza Horizon 4, Rise of the Tomb Raider, The Quarry, and Forager. Other games leaving at the end of the month include Party Animals, BlazBlue: Cross Tag Battle, Close to the Sun, Humankind, Lego 2K Drive, and McPixel 3. These titles cover a range of genres, from horror to family-friendly, offering something for all types of gamers.

Party Animals is an Xbox-exclusive party game with wacky physics similar to multiplayer games like Fall Guys, while Lego 2K Drive allows players to build and race their own Lego race cars. It’s important to note that Xbox has listed all of the games leaving in December at the same time, which is a departure from their usual practice of listing games leaving every fortnight. This may be due to the upcoming holiday season, as companies tend to close down for the holidays, so Xbox has released all the information at once.

Xbox Game Pass subscribers will have the opportunity to enjoy new games added to the service in December, including Party Animals, Lego 2K Drive, and Forager. At the same time, they will need to make the most of the games leaving, such as Amnesia: The Bunker, Forza Horizon 4, and Rise of the Tomb Raider, before they are removed at the specified times. The variety of games leaving in December offers something for every type of gamer, from horror enthusiasts to family-friendly players, ensuring that everyone can find something they enjoy on Xbox Game Pass.
