Microsoft has revealed six additional games leaving Xbox and PC Game Pass in October 2023 including fan favourite Trek to Yomi.
Revealed on the Xbox Store, Trek to Yomi's removal will be joined by The Legend of Tianding, Turnip Boy Commits Tax Evasion, and Eville on Xbox Game Pass, in addition to Shenzhen I/O and Overwhelm on PC Game Pass.
Microsoft didn't share an exact date for the games' removal but did say it would be "in the next two weeks", with Game Pass departures usually taking place mid-month. It's worth noting that, for those looking to play these games after their removal, they'll be available to purchase outright for 20% off while still available as part of Game Pass.
Trek to Yomi is reminiscent of classic samurai films with its striking black and white visuals and cinematic feel. Developer Flying Wild Hog looked to invoke this atmosphere further through a balance of intense action and sombre moments too.
In our 7/10 review, IGN said: "Trek to Yomi absolutely nails the samurai aesthetic in a satisfying but modest adventure."
Plenty of games will be joining Game Pass in October too, of course, though Microsoft has only revealed a couple so far. These include Gotham Knights (which IGN said had "poor combat, a transparently predictable mystery, and gruelling progression in our 5/10 review) and The Lamplighters League, which earned a 7/10 from IGN.
