The newest games heading to Xbox Game Pass this month have been revealed

The highlight of this month’s additions is undoubtedly Final Fantasy XIII, Surgeon Simulator 2: Access All Areas, incredible-looking indie The Artful Escape, and much more. There’s something for everyone here, but this time around the additions are mostly dominated by indie titles. Still, the best Xbox Game Pass games continue to face increasingly challenging competition, as Xbox Game Pass adds new entries to its growing roster.

The games on this list can head everywhere that Xbox Game Pass is available, including Xbox Series X, Xbox Series S, Xbox One, PC, and Xbox Cloud Gaming. It’s easy to lose track of everything coming to and leaving from Xbox Game Pass, which is why we’ve got you covered.
