We Happy Few is another Game Pass departure this month

Few are sad

Microsoft have finally confirmed the games coming to Game Pass this January - and hey, it’s just the (stellar) games we already knew about from announcements last year. But there is a new game among those leaving the service: We Happy Few, the creepy, sneaky survival horror from Compulsion Games - who are now a Microsoft first-party studio.

Alas, while developers Compulsion Games are now Microsoft owned, We Happy Few was developed in partnership with Gearbox Publishing, an Embracer joint, and so is not controlled by Microsoft.

Better games are joining the service: as previously announced, JRPG classicsPersona 3 PortableandPersona 4 Goldenarrive on the service on January 19th, and beast battlerMonster Hunter Risearrives on January 20th.

Earlier this month,survival sim Stranded Deep joined the platform, followed byoverlooked soulslike Mortal Shell.

The other leaves were also announced earlier this month, includingThe Anacrusis, Pupperazi, Windjammers 2, Nobody Saves The World, andDanganronpa: Trigger Happy Havoc, all of which depart alongside We Happy Few on January 15th. You can read all the details over onthe Xbox site.
