Microsoft's Xbox Game Pass subscription service is losing six games today. The 15th of every month is typically a sad day for Xbox Game Pass subscribers, as that's the day that the service loses another batch of games. As previously announced, October 15 will see the departure of six Xbox Game Pass games, though subscribers to the service do have some time to buy the games to keep at a discount.

Some Xbox Game Pass subscribers may not even realize this, but there are more benefits to the service besides access to its large library of games. Almost all Xbox Game Pass games are available at a nice 20% discount while they're on the service, so those that want to own the games and not worry about them getting the boot can do so without paying full price. This discount goes away once the games are removed from Game Pass, so anyone interested in taking advantage of it should act fast.

The six games leaving Xbox Game Pass today are Bloodroots, Echo Generation, Into the Pit, Ring of Pain, Sable, and The Good Life. All six of the games were available across Xbox consoles, PC, and the cloud, so their departure will definitely sting. Xbox Game Pass subscribers are encouraged to test all the games leaving today to see if they want to buy any of them to keep, but those with limited time on their hands may want to prioritize trying some before the others.

Out of all the games leaving Xbox Game Pass on October 15, the one with the highest review scores is Bloodroots. Originally released in 2020, Bloodroots is a hack and slash western game where players take on the role of the vengeful Mr. Wolf. It should appeal to those looking for a fast-paced action game to play, and is definitely worth a loot before it is removed from the Xbox Game Pass subscription service.

The second-highest rated game leaving Xbox Game Pass today is Echo Generation. Once a day one Xbox Game Pass game, Echo Generation is an RPG with a striking voxel art style and an aesthetic that is reminiscent of shows like Stranger Things.

Into the Pit, Ring of Pain, and Sable earned mostly mixed reviews, while The Good Life is the only game on the list of games leaving Xbox Game Pass today that had mostly negative reviews. That being said, The Good Life is one of the latest projects from Swery, so fans of his bizarre brand of games may still find it worth checking out.
