The Witcher 3 and More Leaving Xbox Game Pass

Five games will soon disappear from the Xbox Game Pass. Among them is The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt - one of the unquestionable hits currently available in the service.

ON MARCH 16, 2021, THE XBOX GAME PASS WILL LOSE:
  1. The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt
  2. Bloodstained: Ritual of the Night
  3. Kona
  4. Alvastia Chronicles
  5. Astrologaster

Thanks to the messages posted on the Xbox Game Pass app, we learned which games will soon be removed from the service - that is, on March 16, 2021. The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt will definitely be a major loss. We were able to launch the aforementioned CD Projekt RED title via XGP since December 2019. Thus, it spent more than a year in it.

Unfortunately, a few other valuable games will also disappear in mid-March. Among them stand out, for example, Bloodstained: Ritual of the Night, a well-received gothic horror metroidvania or the survival adventure game called Kona (the roots of which date back to an old Kickstarter fundraiser).

Xbox Game Pass will also lose two other, a little less popular titles. We're talking about Alvastia Chronicles, a retro-style jRPG drawing on the Final Fantasy series, as well as Astrologaster, an independent role-playing game by a small London-based studio Nyamyam.

We'd like to remind you once again - this is the last call to try out these games in XGP. Microsoft will have to remove them from its offer, as we previously mentioned, on March 16, 2021.

His adventure with journalism began with a personal blog, the name of which is no longer worth quoting. Then he interpreted Iranian dramas and the Joker, writing for cinematography journal, which, sadly, no longer exists. His writing credentials include a degree in film studies, but his thesis was strictly devoted to video games. He has been writing for Gamepressure since March 2020, first writing a lot about movies, then in the newsroom, and eventually, he became a specialist in everything. He currently edits and writes articles and features. A long-time enthusiast of the most bizarre indie games and arthouse cinema. He idolizes surrealism and postmodernism. He appreciates the power of absurdity. Which is probably why he also tried soccer refereeing for 2 years (with so-so results). He tends to over-philosophize, so watch out.
