The Xbox Game Pass library changes almost every week, with new games coming to the subscription service constantly. Microsoft adds all first-party games on day one, allowing members to play them on launch. Third-party and indie titles added to the service are usually spread out throughout the month, giving users new games to try on a regular basis.Popular games like Far Cry 5, Watch Dogs 2, and Yakuza 0 were added to Xbox Game Pass earlier this month, with Torment: Tides of Numenera and Inside coming on July 21 and 29 respectively. Games often leave Xbox Game Pass after a set period, although users get some time to finish their playthrough. Some games have already left Xbox Game Pass in July, with more departing later in the month. As a pleasant surprise, one title that is said to leave the subscription service later this month just received a major update.The game in question is Raji: An Ancient Epic Enhanced Edition, which is now available to Xbox Game Pass members on console, cloud, and PC. This upgraded version adds new features, game modes, and other improvements to the game. As per a blog post shared alongside the Steam launch, Raji: An Ancient Epic Enhanced Edition adds various difficulty options, Hindi voice-over, new animations, a level selection menu, and more. It also makes improvements to the AI, boss fights, pacing, and the user interface.
While some may be upset at the timing of this update, the date for Raji: An Ancient Epic to leave the Xbox Game Pass library was probably finalized a while ago. Raji: An Ancient Epic was added to the Xbox Game Pass library in July 2021, making it a full year before its scheduled departure. It’s a hack-and-slash platformer set in ancient India and tells the tale of siblings Raji and Golu who got separated due to a demonic horde’s attack.
Raji: An Ancient Epic is one of 5 games leaving Xbox Game Pass on July 31. Dodgeball Academia, Katamari Damacy Reroll, Lumines Remastered, and Omno will not be a part of Xbox Game Pass next month, so fans have around 10 days to play them. Xbox Game Pass members can take advantage of a discount of up to 20% should they decide to purchase any of these titles. However, most of them are under 10 hours long, so users should have enough time to finish them.
Raji: An Ancient Epic is available for PC, PS4, Switch, and Xbox One.
