Games leaving Xbox and PC Game Pass on July 31, 2023
At the end of July, we have five more leaving the service.
Dreamscaper (Cloud, Console, and PC)

Marvel’s Avengers (Cloud, Console, and PC)
The Ascent (Cloud, Console, and PC)
Two Point Campus (Cloud, Console, and PC)
With these five games, that makes eight games leaving the service this July.
This will be music to the ears of kids who grew up on the series, but for the uninitiated, there’s nothing quite like the Mario & Luigi games. Mario & Luigi Brothership does its best to appeal to a wide range of players with charming presentation and a strong new Battle Plug system, but not everyone will be enamored with its reflex-testing gameplay.
