Unfortunately, some games, including Grand Theft Auto 5 and Persona 3 Portable, are being removed from the Xbox Games Pass library. Here are the details…

GTA 5 and Persona 3 Portable are leaving Xbox Game Pass soon

The Xbox Game Pass regularly introduces us with new games, but it also says goodbye to beloved ones. Unfortunately, the latest example of this is GTA 5. As you know, Xbox One series and Xbox Series S/X users have been enjoying this timeless classic since July 2023. However, in two weeks, console gamers will have to pay to play this game. The price of Grand Theft Auto V for Xbox varies by region and edition, ranging from $19.99 to $59.99.

Unfortunately, GTA 5 isn’t the only game leaving the Xbox Game Pass. Persona 3 Portable is also no longer available on the service. While GTA V appealed to a more generic audience, Persona 3 Portable was beloved by RPG fans. Yet, there’s no need to worry. As seen in the past, GTA has been added to and taken off the Game Pass several times. Given its popularity and the excitement for GTA 6, it’s probable that it will return to the Game Pass soon.
