There are loads of entertaining new titles coming to Game Pass this month, but that also means a few games are being removed from the catalogue. If you have an Xbox or PC, you have two weeks to dive in.
Among the departing slate is a Capcom hidden gem: Kunitsu-Gami: Path of the Goddess. According to us (the authorities!), the single-player action-strategy game based on Japanese folklore feels like it was ripped right out of the PlayStation 2 era (in a good way). Here’s how our own Oli Welsh put it last year around release:
Kunitsu-Gami is a relatively small-scale, defiantly odd game that could have been ripped straight from that 2000s heyday. With its sequence of small, confined stages, focused action, and a tight gameplay loop, it feels more like a remaster of some lost PS2 game than a true product of 2024 (complimentary). Its richly detailed, grotesque art is inspired by traditional Japanese folklore and illustration styles, and that aesthetic combines with the premise to create a unique atmosphere that’s both eerie and beguiling. It’s a true one-off.
Kunitsu-Gami: Path of the Goddess leaves Game Pass on July 31, along with the following titles:
- Gigantic
- Turnip Boy Robs a Bank
If you’ve been looking to give these games a spin, now’s the time, as they’ll disappear from the Game Pass catalogue at the end of the month. But if you’ve already grown attached to these games, all is not lost: Game Pass subscribers who want to keep these titles in their library will get a 20% discount on the price of each game.
