Lies of P is an award-winning game that reimagines the story of Pinocchio as a soulslike set in a grimy world overrun by killer mechanical puppets. It was released on Day 1 on Xbox Game Pass in 2023. Now, Microsoft is removing that game and others from the service on Saturday.

Microsoft will remove Lies of P after its developer, Neowiz, announced it would release the game’s first downloadable content, a prequel called Lies of P: Overture, this summer. So, if you played this game when it was released in 2023 and need a refresher before the DLC’s release, or you want to experience this game for the first time, you have only a few days left before you have to buy it separately.

According to the gaming website How Long to Beat, it takes about 29 hours to beat the main story in Lies of P, so you’d have to play the game for about 15 hours a day to beat the game before it’s removed from Game Pass. Good luck. 

Microsoft is also removing a few other games from the service, including Yakuza 5 Remastered and Yakuza 6: The Song of Life. This reduces the number of Yakuza games on the service after Microsoft removed Yakuza 3 Remastered and Yakuza 4 Remastered from the service on Feb. 28.

Here is the full list of games Microsoft is removing from Xbox Game Pass on Saturday, March 15.

Evil West
Lies of P
No More Heroes 3
Solar Ash
SpongeBob SquarePants: Battle for Bikini Bottom – Rehydrated
Yakuza 5 Remastered
Yakuza 6: The Song of Life

While Microsoft is removing those games from Game Pass, it’s also adding six games to different service tiers. Here are the games Microsoft is adding to the service in March. You can also check out games Microsoft added to the service in February, including CNET”s pick for Best Game of 2024, Balatro.

Monster Train

Available now.

Hell has frozen over and the celestial forces of heaven are coming to extinguish the last burning pyre, and it’s up to you to stop them. Monster Train is a unique roguelike deck builder with a twist that spreads your playing field out to three vertical areas in the aforementioned train. With over 250 cards and six monster clans to call on, you’ll have plenty of ways to ward off your enemies and take back your home in Hell.

Galacticare

Available now.

Xbox Game Pass Ultimate subscribers can already play this game, and Game Pass Standard subscribers can play this resource-management game, too. You play as the director of an intergalactic hospital, and it’s up to you to help cure as many different species of aliens as possible if they can afford it. Design, furnish and upgrade your hospital as you see fit, hire the right doctors and keep everyone happy. Just make sure you get paid first. This game definitely doesn’t sound like a scathing indictment of any real-world healthcare system. That would be silly.

One Lonely Outpost

Available now.

You’re a pioneer in this cozy farming sim, but you aren’t restoring your deceased grandfather’s rundown old farm in this game. You’re building a life on an alien planet. You must terraform the land to grow and cultivate organic and genetically modified crops. You’ll also raise robo-livestock and use drones to fish and forage, but you can still romance other settlers in the area. So get out there and make this planet your home!

Enter the Gungeon

Available now.

More than two years after Microsoft removed this game from Game Pass, this gunfight dungeon crawler is back. Shoot, loot and doge your way through a procedurally generated labyrinth on a quest to find the ultimate weapon: a gun that can kill the past. You’ll chat with merchants, shoot enemies armed to the teeth and discover hidden secrets throughout the dungeon.

Mullet MadJack

Available now.

This first-person shooter is like a cyberpunk version of the neon-drenched game Hotline Miami. You have 10 seconds to live, and the only thing that can keep you alive is killing your robotic enemies. But you aren’t just randomly taking down robots — you’re also on a mission to rescue someone called the “Influencer” from a skyscraper. So pick your favorite weapon and climb each floor as fast as possible to survive and save the princess, I mean Influencer.

33 Immortals (game preview)

Available: March 18

Playing co-op games with a friend can be fun, and this game asks, “What if you played those games with over 30 other people?” This game is a co-op action-roguelike that 33 people can play together. You’re all damned souls rebelling against God’s judgment by fighting against hordes of monsters and massive bosses. Upgrade your soul with new relics and expand your arsenal with new weapons in your fight for survival.
