The bad "V"
This Reddit-created document also lists games most likely to leave based on how long they've been up and taking into account that games are usually contracted for 12/18 month periods. It's an invaluable resource tool:@hasanejaz88 you can see the list of games here to see how many suit you. The games on that list, you have access to either until your subscription ends or they get removed from the service (roughly the same number get added each month that leave each month). There is a leaving soon section on the site but you have to pay attention to it or you could get a nasty surprise like @Massive Spanner did.
The catch tends to be that although the games are 'free', the DLC generally isn't so the studios get the Game Pass moolah from Microsoft as well as money for DLC/microtransactions on the games they add to the service. Maybe there's an exception for first party games like on PS+ but I don't know.

If you look at the ones leaving this month for example, you'll note that most have been up for exactly 12 months (or more).
A Plague Tale: Innocence first went up on January 2020 and left September 2022 so really it's just a case of @Massive Spanner being a @Massive Spanner having not played it in all that time (31 months!).
