Removing a payment method
I don’t want a payment method on here anymore but every time I try to remove it, it doesn’t come off. It’s charging me for a free game
iPhone 13, iOS 16

It sounds like there's a subscription with the game, or maybe in-app purchase and you don't realize it.
This support article explains how to cancel a subscription from Apple on an Apple mobile device, Mac, PC, and online ➔ If you want to cancel a subscription from Apple - Apple Support
Notes:
• You might need to scroll down to find the Cancel Subscription button.
• If you don’t see Cancel Subscription, then the subscription is already canceled and won't renew. An "Expires" date (instead of "Renews") means the current subscription will just run until then. "Resubscribe" is just in case you change your mind about having it end.
• Deleting an app does not cancel a subscription.
• If you don’t cancel trials more than 24 hours before your renewal date, your subscription might renew.
• If you don't have an Apple device, see the options near the bottom of the support document.
• Many subscriptions are set to renew automatically until you intentionally cancel them.

Ongoing subscriptions and Family Sharing organizers must always have a payment method present. To edit the cards used for those you may need to first add the new card and make it the primary payment method before removing the old card (see: If you need to change or update your Apple ID payment method - Apple Support ).
