Xbox Cloud Gaming lists Clair Obscur and six more games as leaving on October 16

Xbox Cloud Gaming’s US leaving-soon row lists October 16 for Clair Obscur: Expedition 33, Pacific Drive and five other games. The cards were checked on October 5. They show a calendar date without a cutoff time or time zone.

This is the cloud library, where Xbox runs the game on its servers and streams it to your device. The row does not establish a matching departure schedule for every PC or console version. Check the game’s listing on your account if you are planning your remaining cloud sessions.

Which games carry the October 16 label?

These seven cards show the date on both the US page and Xbox’s Spanish cloud page:

• Evil West
• Donut County
• A Plague Tale: Requiem
• Crime Scene Cleaner
• The Casting of Frank Stone
• Pacific Drive
• Clair Obscur: Expedition 33

Superball is also marked as leaving soon, but no date is visible alongside it in that section. It is therefore separate from the seven dated entries.

For a closer look at the headline game, our Clair Obscur: Expedition 33 review covers its mix of turn-based decisions and real-time dodges and parries.

Check purchased-game support before paying

A separate purchase can be a route to cloud play for supported games. Xbox’s cloud FAQ allows streaming selected titles you own even when they are outside Game Pass. That still depends on the game, an eligible subscription, a supported region and device, and compatible controls.

The current Clair Obscur cloud listing specifies a game purchase plus Game Pass Essential, Premium or Ultimate. That page describes current purchase requirements and does not confirm how access will work after the catalog change.

Our guide to digital game purchases and licenses explains why buying access and receiving a subscription entitlement are different arrangements. Before buying a departing title specifically to keep streaming it, confirm that its own page still supports purchased-game cloud play and check the required plan.
