What games are coming to Xbox Game Pass in 2026? As the Microsoft-owned division looks to release new first-party heavy hitters this year, we can expect all of them to hit the subscription service day one. But as always, more third-party and indie titles are also joining the list of offerings each month, whether you’re on Xbox or PC. Here’s the up-to-date list of games coming to (and departing) Game Pass in 2026.
Though Game Pass’ prices have steadily gone up and the tiers situation has become more confusing as of late, most players that aren’t into amassing vast libraries of games still find value in the many sub options. Furthermore, it’s helped lots of indie developers and mid-sized studios better market games that otherwise could come and go unnoticed.
Game Pass subs also get extra discounts that apply to games available on the service, so if you’re planning to drop it soon or simply want to own specific titles you’ve greatly enjoyed, that’s an extra perk on top of the ability to play the games across many devices and (in some cases) over the Cloud service that’s worth considering.
Recently, Game Pass Ultimate has dropped from $29.99 to $22.99, while PC Game Pass has gone from $16.49 down to $13.99. The cuts have come to entice more players to the service, but a caveat of this is that each new Call of Duty will not appear Day One on Game Pass.
