Firewatch departs Xbox Game Pass today, removing one of the service's most acclaimed compact narrative adventures. Campo Santo's Wyoming-set mystery follows fire lookout Henry and his radio conversations with supervisor Delilah during an increasingly strange summer in the wilderness.
Its relatively short running time makes it considerably more realistic to complete before a subscription deadline than most sprawling role-playing games. Firewatch's influence can still be seen in modern first-person narrative adventures, particularly those that rely on environmental storytelling and conversation rather than combat.
Anyone who starts after it leaves Game Pass will need to buy the game separately, while existing purchasers are unaffected by the catalogue change. Read official catalogue notes on Xbox Wire and explore top narrative picks on [GameForceAsia](/news).
