Games Leaving PC Game Pass in August 2026
The August update is not only about new additions. Several games are also scheduled to leave the Game Pass library on August 31.
The games leaving on August 31 are:
- Another Crab’s Treasure
- I Am Your Beast
- Neon Abyss
- One Lonely Outpost
- The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt – Remastered Edition
Microsoft confirms that The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt – Remastered Edition is leaving Cloud and Console, while the other listed games are leaving Cloud, Console, and PC.
If you have been playing any of these games through your subscription, August 31 is the date to keep in mind. You may want to finish your current playthrough before access is removed.
NBA 2K26 Leaves Game Pass in September
NBA 2K26 will remain available slightly longer than the other departing games. Microsoft has scheduled its removal for September 6 across Cloud, Console, and PC.
That gives basketball fans a little more time to continue their career, matches, or other modes before the game leaves the service.
PC Game Pass Price in the Philippines
For players in the Philippines, Microsoft currently lists PC Game Pass at ₱225 per month. The subscription provides access to a rotating library of PC games, while EA Play is included at no additional cost.
There is also a 3-month PC Game Pass subscription voucher available through Joytify Philippines, currently listed from ₱823. Joytify supports local payment options including GCash, GrabPay, Maya, ShopeePay, QR payments, and Cebuana.
Before buying, check the current price and product terms because voucher pricing and promotions can change.
What Does PC Game Pass Include?
PC Game Pass gives subscribers access to a large and rotating PC game library through Windows. Microsoft also highlights EA Play membership, member discounts, and selected new releases available from day one.
This makes the subscription particularly useful if you enjoy trying different games instead of purchasing every title individually. The library also changes over time, so games available today may eventually leave the service.
PC Game Pass supports Windows 10 and Windows 11 version 22H2 or higher, although individual games can have additional system requirements.

Is PC Game Pass Worth It in August 2026?
PC Game Pass remains an appealing option if you regularly play different genres and want access to a changing selection of games. The August 2026 lineup covers everything from challenging platformers and roguelites to relaxing life simulations and narrative adventures.
The biggest thing to remember is that Game Pass works as a rotating library. New games continue to arrive, but titles such as The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt – Remastered Edition and several other games are also leaving at the end of August.
For PC gamers in the Philippines, the current ₱225 monthly Microsoft price gives you a straightforward way to access the service, while Joytify also provides a 3-month voucher option with local payment methods.
If you’re planning to subscribe, August is a good time to check both the incoming games and the titles leaving soon so you can decide which games to play first.
