Discover every new game coming to Xbox Game Pass right here.
Xbox Game Pass is the ever-expanding Netflix-like gaming subscription from Microsoft, the makers of Xbox. For a monthly subscription, Xbox Game Pass partakers gain access to a constantly rotating catalog of hundreds of high-quality Xbox games. The best Xbox Game Pass games include third-party multiplayer games, older AAA titles, indie projects, all first-party Microsoft games, and pretty much everything in between.
Xbox Game Pass is also included in Xbox Game Pass Ultimate, an all-in-one subscription that gives players full access to Xbox Game Pass on Xbox Series X, Xbox Series S, and Xbox One consoles, Xbox Game Pass on PC, Xbox Live Gold, Xbox Cloud Gaming (Project xCloud), and even EA Play. Xbox Game Pass Ultimate represents one of the best values in gaming, and that value only increases from month to month.
That's because Xbox Game Pass is always adding new games, with announcements once or twice a month. While games occasionally leave the service, the number of games available through Xbox Game Pass has been steadily growing since its launch. In this Xbox Game Pass guide, we'll go over all the new games coming to the service, the games about to leave, and the top games you should be keeping an eye on.
Note: Platforms in bold indicate the game was already available on other platforms through Xbox Game Pass and is expanding to new ones.

Best new Xbox Game Pass games: June 2021
You'll rarely go wrong with the diverse selection of games on Xbox Game Pass, but there are always a handful that stand above the rest — including but not limited to exceptional indie games, addictive multiplayer games, expansive AAA games, and Microsoft's first-party games. These are the best new games that have recently arrived on Xbox Game Pass.
Xbox and Bethesda Games Showcase
- Available: June 13 (A variety of platforms)
The Xbox and Bethesda Games Showcase at E3 2021 was packed with an absurd number of game announcements and reveals, many of which are heading to Xbox Game Pass on day one. However, Microsoft also announced an incredible collection of 11 games that were made available on Xbox Game Pass immediately after the event. We have the full list of Xbox Game Pass-bound titles from the event below, including the ones available right now, but you can't go wrong here.
The 11 new games include gems like the latest Yakuza game, Yakuza: Like a Dragon, Dishonored: Death of the Outsider, DOOM (2016), The Evil Within 2, Wolfenstein II: The New Colossus, and more on top of that! Every single one of these games deserves your attention, and they're all available now.
Darkest Dungeon
- Available: June 10 (Xbox Series X|S, Xbox One, PC, & Xbox Cloud Gaming)
We collectively willed for Darkest Dungeon to come to Xbox Game Pass, and Microsoft made it happen. This gothic turn-based RPG is morbid and oppressive, but it features challenging and incredibly satisfying gameplay and darkly alluring visuals. Those looking for a casual game shouldn't look for it in Darkest Dungeon, but players that actively seek out new challenges will love what Darkest Dungeon has to offer.
For Honor
- Available: June 3 (Xbox Series X|S, Xbox One, & Xbox Cloud Gaming)
For Honor was a bit of a surprise title from Ubisoft, as it joined the recent trend of online medieval warfare games, but focused on the brutal and harrowing nature of small-scale skirmishes between expert warriors. Since its launch, it has received countless updates with new content and new reasons for players to join, and For Honor has continued to grow at an impressive rate. Now, you can try For Honor for yourself, since it's now available on Xbox Game Pass.

Upcoming games launching on Xbox Game Pass
Microsoft gives us updates on games heading to Xbox Game Pass a few weeks before those games become available, usually twice a month. However, Xbox and ID@Xbox events toss aside this expectation to announce a flurry of games that are hitting Xbox Game Pass day and date, meaning they're launching into the service when they land on Xbox platforms. That means day one access to all of these games for Xbox Game Pass subscribers, including to some of the best upcoming Xbox games.
Many of these games are far enough out that they don't even have a release date, and we're not certain exactly which platforms they'll come to through Xbox Game Pass. Still, this list in our Xbox Game Pass guide will give you an idea of what to look out for in the future of Xbox Game Pass. We'll constantly update this list as we get new information about release dates, when games become available, and what platforms are getting them.
