Frictional Games signals Amnesia remake as Xbox Game Pass removes four titles

Frictional Games' latest financial report mentions a "new version" of its 2010 horror title Amnesia: The Dark Descent, indicating a possible remake, remaster or re‑edition slated for release by the end of 2026. No official announcement has been made, but the studio may reveal details at the upcoming Gamescom event.

Separately, Xbox Game Pass will lose four games from its catalog on 15 August: Atlas Fallen: Reign of Sand, MENACE, Aliens: Fireteam Elite and Firewatch. The removal was flagged by an update to the Xbox app, prompting subscribers to play the titles before they disappear.

Both announcements reflect ongoing shifts in the video‑game market, with developers planning new releases while subscription services adjust their libraries.
