Outer Wilds, the acclaimed time warp adventure from Mobius Digital, is one of nine titles leaving Xbox Game Pass at the turn of the year. Microsoft’s subscription service, known for shuffling its game library every month, didn’t mention the removal of those titles in its latest Xbox blog. However, if you scroll down to the “Leaving Soon” section of the Xbox app, you’ll see that nine games are on course to leave the service on January 1, 2023.

Not to be confused with Space RPG The Outer Worlds – also available on Game Pass – here you are tasked with exploring the mysteries of an extinct race and solving the overarching mystery.
