Microsoft is set to remove nine titles from the Xbox Game Pass library on April 30, 2026, as part of its regular catalog rotation. The outgoing lineup includes a mix of indie titles, major franchises, and recent additions to the service.

Among the departing games is Citizen Sleeper, a narrative-driven RPG that originally launched on the service as a day-one release in May 2022. Creatures of Ava, another day one addition from August 2024, will also leave alongside Revenge of the Savage Planet, which joined in May 2025.

Several well-known franchises are also affected. Dragon Ball Xenoverse 2, which was added in May 2025, is set to exit, along with NHL 24, which became available through EA Play in April 2024. Hunt Showdown 1896, a tactical PvPvE shooter, will also be removed after joining in December 2024.

The list further includes Endless Legend 2, a strategy title that arrived on the service on September 22, 2025, as a day-one release, as well as both Goat Simulator and Goat Simulator Remastered, which have had multiple appearances on Game Pass over time.

The full list of games leaving Xbox Game Pass on April 30, 2026 is as follows:

  • Citizen Sleeper
