Xbox Game Pass loses a brilliant stealthy adventure and 6 other great games very soon
The Xbox Game Pass losses continue with the service ducking out of April with the loss of seven games. Sniper Elite 5 is on its way out of Xbox Game Pass, alongside a few other great games this month. Xbox Game Pass has had some ups and downs so far this year, but it's found itself on a mountaintop lately. The latest addition to the Xbox Game Pass roster came when Oblivion Remastered announced its surprise drop, landing on the service as well as across PC and PS5. It's undoubtedly a massive appearance from the iconic RPG, but it hasn't ended there, especially after GTA 5 returned to Xbox Game Pass in the second April service drop. Games have been firing out left, right, and centre for Game Pass subscribers, and though there have been some big losses like the Xbox Game Pass Yakuza Exodus that continued until no games from the franchise were left, it's still been a good time to be a subscriber. That doesn't mean the losses have ceased entirely, though. More games are set to leave the Xbox Game Pass service incredibly soon, and it's up to you to decide if their absence justifies the new games joining in – especially as one FPS series is losing a belter in the process. Here's what you need to know about the Xbox Game Pass games leaving as we enter May. Xbox Game Pass shows its poor aim As revealed when we took a look at the final April drop for Xbox Game Pass, here are the games set to leave the service on Wednesday, April 30: EA Sports NHL 23 (console, EA Play) Have a Nice Death (console, cloud, PC) Kona 2 Brume (console, cloud, PC) Sniper Elite 5 (console, cloud, PC) The Last Case of Benedict Fox (console, cloud, PC) Thirsty Suitors (console, cloud, PC) The Rewinder (console, cloud, PC) It's not an insignificant number of games leaving, of course, accentuated by the departure of Sniper Elite 5. It's a curious loss, especially as Sniper Elite: Resistance landed on the service in the January 2025 Xbox Game Pass update. Of course, players will be more allured by the most recent title, but to strip out the game that came directly before it is still strange after the series made a comfortable home on the pass. These losses are frustrating, and in a difficult turn for players, often forgotten about in the hype for new and incoming games, so make note of the games you want to play before they depart the service, or put to use the small discount you'll get on buying them before they're off the service entirely. It's a small price to pay for all of those day one releases.

Sony hits Türkiye with massive 55% PlayStation Plus price hike
Sony has announced a significant price increase for its PlayStation Plus subscription service in Türkiye, with the annual cost of the Deluxe package rising 55% to ₺4,266 from 24 June 2025, sparking backlash from players already contending with local economic challenges. Sony is facing criticism from Turkish gamers after confirming a steep rise in PlayStation Plus subscription prices, with the most expensive tier, Deluxe, increasing from ₺2,740 to ₺4,266 annually—a 55.69% hike. The Extra tier will also rise by a similar margin, from ₺2,340 to ₺3,645. The new pricing, announced via email to subscribers, will take effect from 24 June 2025. While official pricing for the Essential tier remains undisclosed, based on the same increase rate, a yearly subscription is expected to jump from ₺1,400 to around ₺2,180. This marks the second major hike in Türkiye after the 2023 adjustments, which saw price increases of up to 600% due to currency depreciation and inflation. The rising costs are prompting many players to reconsider their subscriptions or seek alternatives. PlayStation Plus offers online multiplayer access, monthly free games, discounts, cloud storage, and trials, and is available in Essential, Extra, and Deluxe tiers. Despite these benefits, the affordability of the service is becoming a growing concern for Turkish users. Sony stated that the changes aim to maintain service quality and deliver 'high-value games and features.' However, critics argue that such increases make the platform less accessible, particularly in Türkiye, where economic volatility continues to affect consumer spending. Some users have reported renewing subscriptions at current rates to avoid the increase, with one case from 2023 resurfacing of a player who prepaid 27 years of service to lock in lower rates. Others are cancelling their subscriptions or turning to competitors. Microsoft's Xbox Game Pass, which includes a large game library and currently costs around ₺2,500 per year for the Ultimate tier in Türkiye, is gaining attention as a more affordable option. EA Play and other niche services are also emerging as viable alternatives for some players. Sony has yet to confirm whether similar increases will apply to other PlayStation Plus packages, though users are bracing for comparable adjustments.
