The Xbox team has just confirmed that Xbox Game Pass adds F1 23 and six more games across January and February, but these announcements also always include what's leaving soon. This time, it's just one title — Hitman World of Assassination, which includes access to all the levels from the three recent Hitman games, essentially meaning we're losing three in one at the end of the month.

Hitman World of Assassination leaves Game Pass on January 31


The Hitman branding has been a little all over the place with its three games. They were separate, but after confusion about different versions and different groupings, everything came under one name at the start of last year: Hitman World of Assassination. You know what? Let's just let IO Interactive explain:

"Hitman 3 will become ‘Hitman World of Assassination’, which will also include access to Hitman 1 and Hitman 2 through our existing Access Pass system. Current Hitman 3 owners will get a free upgrade to Hitman World of Assassination on all platforms. We’re drastically simplifying the purchase experience for new players. Hitman World of Assassination will be the single available option to start playing."

There are 83 Hitman World of Assassination achievements to work through, so there's a fair amount to cover if you're looking to finish this one up by the end of January.

Hitman World of Assassination leaves Game Pass on January 31, but we've still got all the upcoming Game Pass games to look forward to.
