Game Pass October: Battlefield 6 arrives, Expedition 33 leaves – only one week left

TVS News AI, editorially supervised, presents Game Pass October: Battlefield 6 arrives, Expedition 33 leaves – only one week left.

Microsoft is launching the first Game Pass wave in October – and it's a big one: Battlefield 6 is heading into the service, while subscribers have to say goodbye to an award-winning game. Clair Obscur: Expedition 33, according to Eurogamer, has only about one week left in the subscription before it disappears from Game Pass. For anyone who hasn't tried the title yet, the message is clear: sacrifice your next free hour – or buy it later.

Battlefield 6 joins Game Pass

According to Eurogamer, Microsoft has unveiled the first wave of Xbox Game Pass new additions for October – and Battlefield 6 is among them. The new shooter lands in the subscription at no extra cost. The report does not name further games from the wave or specific dates; since this is explicitly the "first wave," a second tranche is likely to follow later in the month.

Expedition 33: only one week left

While a new title joins up front, another one leaves in the back: Clair Obscur: Expedition 33, according to Microsoft, will leave Game Pass in about a week. Anyone who still wants to try the award-winning game through the subscription needs to hurry – after that, it's either buy it or nothing.

What this means for you

For your gaming plans, this means concretely: If you want to test Battlefield 6 without the regular purchase price, an active Game Pass subscription is enough – Microsoft will still provide the exact day. And if Expedition 33 has been sitting on your "I'll-play-it-someday" list for months: "Someday" is now. The deadline expires next week.

Microsoft, according to Eurogamer, is still keeping quiet about the second October wave. As soon as more additions or removals are confirmed, the Xbox Wire blog is likely to be the first port of call.
