Any titles already downloaded won’t be affected for as long as you have them.

“This will not impact any Xbox 360 games that you downloaded before October 2022.

“Any Xbox 360 titles that you redeem via Games with Gold before that time are yours to keep on your Xbox account, regardless of whether you continue your subscription.
