Clair Obscur: Expedition 33 Is Leaving Xbox Game Pass on October 15 With 8 Other Games

Clair Obscur: Expedition 33 is leaving Xbox Game Pass on October 15, 2026, along with eight other games, and Microsoft’s Xbox app is now flagging all nine as leaving soon. If you’ve been putting off the 2025 Game of the Year winner on Game Pass, you have 12 days to finish it or buy it before it disappears from your library.

Expedition 33 arrived on Game Pass on day one in April 2025, so it has been part of the service for roughly a year and a half. Its exit is the headline of a departure list that also includes A Plague Tale: Requiem and Pacific Drive, which makes this one of the heavier Game Pass clear-outs in recent months.

Every game leaving Xbox Game Pass on October 15

Game Pass members get at least 20% off every game on the list until it leaves, and the discount shows up on each game’s page in the Xbox app and Microsoft Store. If you buy, your saves and achievements stay with you, so you won’t have to restart a campaign you’re already deep into.

Can you still finish Expedition 33 before October 15?

It’s possible, but only if you start now. The main story runs to around 30 hours, and players who chase the optional areas and side content can spend more than 60 hours with it. That’s a lot to squeeze into less than two weeks, especially with Gears of War: E-Day landing on Game Pass on October 6 and competing for your evenings.

The Casting of Frank Stone is the easiest to clear in time at around six hours, and Donut County is short enough for a single weekend. Pacific Drive sits at roughly 20 hours, which is manageable if you play most evenings. For the longer games, it’s worth checking how far you are before deciding whether to push on or pay.

What Nigerian Game Pass players should do before the deadline

If you pay for Game Pass with a dollar card, the exchange rate makes the member discount more useful than it looks on paper. If Expedition 33 is the one you care about, check the discounted price on its Microsoft Store page in your store region before October 15 and compare it with what you’d pay after the offer ends. PS5 owners who bought the game outright aren’t affected, since the change only touches the Game Pass library.

If you play through Xbox Cloud Gaming, remember that a 30-hour RPG streamed over mobile data adds up quickly, and a stable connection matters more than raw speed for a game built on timed dodges and parries.
