Xbox Game Passsees games enter and leave the lineup fairly regularly, keeping the subscription stocked with new titles for gamers to check out. Typically, fans get a decent bit of warning before new games are added to the service, with the Game Pass Twitter revealing what will be headed to the service that month periodically. This is true for July, too, though it seems that two games might have leaked.
According to Pure Xbox, the official Game Pass Twitter uploaded an image stating thatLast StopandThe Forgotten Citywere both slated to join theGame Pass roster. However, neither of these games have been confirmed for the service as of yet, and the tweet containing the games has since been deleted, adding to the confusion.

There are a few possibilities for what might have happened here, though they don’t pin down whether the games will be landing on the service or not anytime soon. The first is that eitherThe Forgotten CityorLast Stop– or potentially both of them – aren’t really coming to Xbox Game Pass and the entire situation was just a mistake. That’s probably the safest bet, as there doesn’t seem to be any clarification from the Game Pass account just yet.
The other possibility is that the games simply weren’t ready to be announced for the service, and bothThe Forgotten CityandLast Stopwill be given final dates in the coming days. According to a Reddit thread that spotted the tweet yesterday,Last Stopis meant to join the service on July 22, whileThe Forgotten Citylands on July 29. If that’s the case, the games should be announced relatively soon, as Xbox usually gives fans about that much warning for new game releases.
Just yesterday, Xbox announcednew July Game Pass games, most of which are focused on bringing existing titles to Cloud platforms. However, there were no hints thatThe Forgotten CityorLast Stopwill make it onto the service this month, so those looking to dive into the games might want to take the leak with a grain of salt. While it’s an official channel for information, mistakes do happen from time to time.
Xbox Game Pass, as a whole, has been doing well, mishaps aside. Just recently, it sparked a “paid ad” meme of people denying beingpaid to talk about Xbox Game Passbeing a great deal, a joke that even the Game Pass Twitter account got in on.
